One that mirrored his aesthetic of “feeling” being the most important emotion to be taken from his photographs. Outside, is designed as a gallery in itself, with forty-seven plates, accompanied by intimate anecdotes by the artist. Square in format, case bound in Japanese paper that resembles rock, featuring gold and translucent foiling, presented in a clam shell box. Each book numbered and signed by the artist.
