Without Clouds was planned as a cloud book, but ended up as a book about the absence of clouds. The text ends even before the book begins. It is a brief excerpt from the 2300-year-old poem Li Sao by the Chinese poet Qu Yuan. The rest is emptiness or simply what it is, a journey whose course is not to be changed, a journey to be contemplated.
German translation by Andrea Seltmann.
Produced in an all-green studio with safe inks.
