Celebesstraat is an edition of twenty portfolios of eight relief prints with five artist proofs and one right to print proof based on diaristic drawings made by Robert Storr in 2024 and printed by Santa Fe-based master printer James Bourland. The portfolio takes its name from the street in the Netherlands where Storr had a studio in the late 1970s. The marks recorded in these prints build a visual register of transcribed psychic movement; They are a calligraphy that evades legibility but intuit how mind and hand might tread the tabula rasa that each sheet of paper offers.
