PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The book "It is not clear until the night falls" brings together words, sentences, photographs and sculptures that composed the exhibition of Juliana Stein at the Oscar Niemeyer Museum from September 2017 to June 2018. The show presented written formulations and images, proposing certain displacements that blur the boundaries between image and text. The dynamics built by the works in the exhibition space are transposed to the book through elements of the graphic design: "open-closed pages" are created by the French binding with perforation in the folds. The use of the varnish defines the field of the work, highlighting it from the blank page. In a first passage through the book, the graphic aspect of the works is emphasized; in a second moment, when opening the perforated pages, the works are contextualized in the exhibition space in a photographic essay.

Juror Comments
This book has a clever conceit: words, images, and french folds requiring a letter opener to rip and read…a crisp bold use of type accompanies multiple views of images at different focal lengths and perspectives. Graphic and photo-graphic, the book's design embodies a question of distance and veracity: a percipient view on what we see and how we see. A poetic graphic experience. — Lucinda Hitchcock
