Now that we have devoted so much effort to taking good photos, don’t we deserve something more than a failure of participation?


This is the thesis book on the topic “How Photography Intervenes with and Transforms Our Experience (in Travel)” for my MFA degree at Pratt Institute, Brooklyn. It includes the full version of an argumentative essay, study on precedents in the art and design field, and the archive of and reflection on relevant projects around the thesis, among which ︎︎︎Distant Flash photobook set is a crucial component.

Intended to be put together and read in comparison, the thesis book adopts a similar typographic system with the photobook set in terms of typeface, sizing, indents, etc. The layering of paper can also be seen here.
