This publication from Japanese publisher ninifuni is part of our personal collection and has been specially selected for the January newsletter. Here are some details about this publication.
- “8 pieces of paper, 8 shapes, and 8 colors” by Yoichiro Uchiyama is a sculptural publication recently launched in Tokyo, Japan.
- The publication contains eight shapes in eight different colors joined together by a ring.
- The structure of the book makes its reading infinite (loop).
- Depending on the position from which it is viewed, it sometimes tends to be sculptural.
- It reminds us of Lygia Clark’s “bichos” and Bruno Munari’s “libri illeggibili”.
