Year 2018

Mapping the duo's exhibition at Whitechapel Gallery, we designed the accompanying catalogue as a walk-trough from entering the building to the last gallery space, using a range of different papers resembling various materials and surfaces throughout the installations and sculptures. In order to include the large-scale installation conceived especially for the gallery in the catalogue, we commissioned Jack Hems to photograph the space as a 360 degrees walk-around.
