This Catalog was published on the occasion of the exhibition INK, an event about contemporary Chinese ink painting. Its design is an attempt to translate the aesthetic of the exhibits into book form. The publication is trying to reflect the spirit of the exhibition and shift the sensibility for combining the void with solid colors and forms to a higher level. The multifaceted design is continued in the text flow, image layout and structure of the book.
