Voices is the result of many days of exploring the streets of New York, photographing and hand-setting words, phrases, and experiences encountered there. It was produced during September and October, as part of the Book Artist-in-Residence program 2021 at Center for Book Arts, NYC. It was printed on colorplan paper in an edition of 200.

While in New York, García photographed hundreds of street signs and then used language from his images to compose a poem-like list of text that is both poignant and humorous.

A single line of text from one New York sign appears on each fold of the accordion book. The paper García selected for the book transitions from bright green to blue to orange to red to yellow — creating a verse-like effect for text on each color of paper.

Printed using a Vandercook Universal III and 45 metal type specimens from the Center for Book Arts collection.
