Using a unique process of passing nicotine through a halftone silkscreen, Ericsson creates ghostly prints that evoke the haunting presence of the past and the ephemeral nature of memory.
Inspired by his mother Sue’s death and the nicotine-stained walls of her home, Nicotine serves as both a tribute to her life and a meditation on loss. The book transforms everyday snapshots into sacred, memorialized images, each print a performance, a physical record of time, and a deeply personal act of remembrance.
Printed in a limited edition of 500 copies, each book is hand-numbered, signed, and features a final personal touch—each is burned with a lit cigarette, making every book a singular tribute to the ephemerality of life.
