Himalayan Notebook<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

by Marilyn Stablein<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Himalayan Notebook,<\/em> is part of a vernacular series of time and place based autobiographical visual narratives composed of vintage Himalayan ads, trivia, pop culture, folklore, maps, woodblock prints, and handmade Nepalese lokta paper, that multidisciplinary artist Marilyn Stablein collected during her seven year sojourn in the Himalayas during the countercultural sixties before the internet, cell phones and email. The book is a hand-stitched numbered edition limited to 150 copies with forty original color collages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stablein grew up on the west coast, south of San Francisco, in the countercultural sixties. She frequented North Beach coffee shops, Ferlinghetti\u2019s City Lights bookstore, as well as Asian museums, markets, and film festivals. On the road at eighteen, inspired by Ginsberg, Snyder and Kyger\u2019s travels in India, she hitchhiked overland to Nepal and India arriving in 1966. She studied Tibetan poetics, tantra, painting and Asian book arts for seven years. Her mixed media work focuses on collage, assemblage, performance art, and book arts which she uses to explore visual narrative (autobiographical collage) travelog and memoir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
