Rui Chafes

Atelier Pedro Falcão, Lisbon, Portugal, 2008

Description

This book is like a movie; a film noir. It’s also a reflection of the artist Rui Chafes. 

Juror Notes

Every detail in this book is an experience for the senses: the discovery of white text hidden throughout the book, and the cinematic motion that occurs while browsing consecutive “empty black” pages to arrive at a series of images, then continuing the journey in constant discovery.
