the book object
the art of forgotten vegetables - 2010

Book cover work. The cover has a communication function and protection of the book. I worked on different reading levels cover: information that gradually unfolds. My indoor displays its contents at various times as a discovery that the reader would make. The issue of forgotten vegetables lends itself to this notion of discovery and even rediscovery. Slowly opening the book reveals the vegetables without being able to recognize immediately (foreground, out of focus areas). The graphic style taken, unlike in traditional cookbooks, introduce the reader into another iconographic environment transcending the vegetables' one. It could be inspired by Botany books and gives value to the different ingredients instead of the finished recipe to make the reader rediscover the taste of forgotten vegetables.
