TAGS: exhibition, catalogue, layout, image editting RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Visiting the exhibition was a must in order to see the pieces in real life and get a sense of the space. This was followed by a one-to-one talk with the artist in order to understand her approach. CHALLENGE: The most challenging part of this book was to organize the photographs in a cohesive layout and capture the intimacy of the exhibition. So that even if the viewer did not visit the exhibition, he or she can get the feel of the space and understand the importance of Eda's grandmother in her life. All the design elements, color, font size, image placement and page order work towards that goal.
