BOOK CONCEPT BLOOD & HONEY

Bloed en honing - ontmoetingen op de grenzen van de Balkan

In Blood and honey, language and image are intertwined into an inseparable whole. That is the basis of the book: a story with two speeds in which language takes over from image for once, and then image takes over from language. As a thread through the book, framed color images are centered on the pages. Only the black and white images push the boundaries on one side. The lyrics work like a kind of harmonica, as if the book “breathes text”. Texts never just stop somewhere halfway down the page, because the font sizes have to adapt to the type area everywhere. Text pages are treated in the same way as image pages.
