Sara L. Press (she/they) is a photographer, printmaker and book artist based in the San Francisco Bay Area. Under her imprint Deeply Game Publications, she has published sixteen book works in editions that range in size from 3 to 100 copies. She is also half of MOB of TWO, a collaborative imprint with Tiana Krahn.

Her projects have looked at peculiar areas of overlap between nature and culture (for example: dog fighting, feral children, and our co-evolution with snakes); constructions of masculinity and femininity in our culture (e.g. bloodsports, military survival manuals, and mis-remembered fairy-tales), and the relationship between emotional and scientific reasoning (see her Bestiary, Cartoon Physics, and Our Specters).

Her work is intended to expand peoples’ capacity for non-dichotomous thinking, which she feels is becoming something of a lost art.

Sara’s work can be seen by the public in more than 50 rare books collections including those at the Library of Congress, the National Museum of Women in the Arts, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery, and dozens of universities’ collections.

To see Deeply Game's editioned works in person, begin with the BOOKS index.  Each book's page lists some of the collections where the book can be seen by the public.
