Title: New Yorker in Praha
Description: "A perfect moment never lasts long, but an imperfect moment may have a lasting impact. The form of leporello supports the continuum of the moment. The sources of the photos are ads in the 'New Yorker' and pictures from a book on Prague architecture called 'Dialog tvaru.' Juxtapositioning the two sources led to a play with time/moment and perfection/decay"--The Book Arts at the Centre for Fine Print Research, UK website.
