Hard Rain/Letter From Cassiodorus is a book in which the text is only legible via peering through the (backlit) image. Roman politician (and later pedagogue) Cassiodorus’ 538 AD account of the catastrophic climate change in the wake of Krakatoa’s eruption is framed/occluded by images of contemporary upheaval and veils of silvery smoke, all composed as intricate paper-cuts and washy ink drawings and then translated into translucent layers of screenprint.
