About the Author

Swiss photographer Annette Golaz captures the poetry of everyday life and the beauty of nature in her work, often consisting of contrasts and conflicting layers.

She has exhibited her work in Switzerland and the USA. She is also head of photography of a Swiss publishing house for cookery books and is the editor of a food magazine.

Reviews

"This book is fantastic and timely. The writing style is clear and articulate, and it is extremely well researched and organized. The appendices are extensive and full of valuable information on paper and plant choices. As an artist/educator who teaches plant-based printing, I will be adding this to my toolbox!"
