About the book project, a 31 meter long leporello (fanfold) book, 382 pages in the format 16.3 x 28 cm: Seeing, photographing, thematizing and adequately presenting everyday things on paper. A book, or more precisely a 31-meter leporello book, becomes an exhibition space and a museum for the “covering” images. Through the choice of material, the special printing and folding technique and the elaborate hand binding, the book itself is turned into a “covering” object. Topic and presentation become a unit.
