The photo book 2021 carries over the structure of the film 2021, transforming its movement and rhythm of time onto the printed page. While the film conveys time through “movement” and “flow,” the book embodies it through “stillness” and “arrangement”. Each medium reflects the year-long act of recording in a form unique to itself.
This book also includes three photographs taken in New York, Bangkok, and Beijing during the 2010s. Each captures two figures standing side by side in a changing world. Together, these three images form a modest prelude to 2021.
The cover and dust jacket of this photo book are made from recycled paper. Beyond the moments of 2021, the book itself will also quietly grow in character over time.
