A book that demands to be picked up. The cover foreshadows the drama within, and the strength of its visual choices reflects the trials of the author’s life. The technical execution of the cover is flawless, from the materials to the binding and screen printing.

A minimalist cover that invites touch. The illustration and imprint on the uncoated white surface strikingly resemble a mark left by a spilled glass. The elements are elegantly arranged, drawing the viewer into the world of the conceptual work.
