Mountains and Molehills
Published by Nai010 Publishers

An exhibition catalogue that captivates at first glance, thanks to its simplicity – or perhaps because of it. The beautifully executed rounded corners immediately evoke the feel of a sketchbook, a connection that complements the content seamlessly. In addition to texts by art critics and the artist herself, the book is enriched with numerous notes and sketches by Tan, offering insights into her thoughts and working processes. The design cleverly plays with the concept of a book within a book, aligning well with Tan's layered films rich in found footage and resulting in visually exciting interplay. At times, text or images extend just beyond the edge of this printed notebook, adding a dynamic touch.

The balance between text and visuals, comprising film stills, behind-the-scenes photographs, and installation photos, is impeccably struck. The printing is exquisite, and all technical aspects of the product are skillfully executed. In essence, this catalogue stands as a finely crafted object, embodying simplicity and sophistication in equal measure.
