the disappeared (first edition)

by Veronica Fieiras

Publisher: Riot Books

32 pages

Year: 2013

Comments: 21 x 29 cm, handmade book on japanese paper, signed and limited first edition of 50 copies

The Disappeared is a book about the blurring and dissolution of identity, both in the larger body of a population, and in the oblivion of time passing... But these vanishing images also reassemble into a collective memory, by leaving an unclear and diffuse mark in people's minds, and becoming an almost real representation of the pain and the suffering experienced by each of these persons, and by the society as a whole, in an era of the Argentinian history overwhelmed by the stony silence imposed by the junta on the population, and remembered mostly through the crual feelings of absence and miss.
A really beautiful book on Japanese paper (except for the central pages), hand-made by Verónica Fieiras and Ilkin Huseynov for their new publishing house "RIOT Books".
