I layered pages from these influential books one on top of another, allowing room for juxtaposition. Enabling text to be subtracted, the different authors have a chance to come in contact with one another.
The idea of discovering something can be unexpected and exciting. But the beautiful juxtapositions and relationships found during the act of discovering is the most interesting to me.
