‘The daring concept and design by Claudia Gravestijn transformed the cahier into much more than an ordinary photography book. This innovative use of the translucency of the paper shows not only  the image, but also the after-image, a shadow – as if you can look through the picture. This cahier is not designed for quickly turning the pages either. You have to ‘unpack’ each and every image. First taking the time to absorb the displayed photo, before – in the next step – enjoying the sequence.’

‘The only text in the book is a poem by Maria Raven. This leaves the viewer / reader the freedom to give each image a meaning for itself – to open (trap) shutters to own memories and stories.’
