Ted Noten is a rebel in the jewellery world. This book does the same in the world of jewelery books. Created out of a pile of thousands of photographs, this book creates compositions, associations, and narratives to illustrate Noten’s work.
While the bulk of the book is a series of free associations bringing to life Ted Noten’s range of work, the back is purely informational. One part presents his work in the form of a catalogue, as well as his contacts in the form of the yellow pages. The concept of the book was developed in close collaboration between the artist, the writer and the designer.
