Description
"This book is made of two parts: the first is based on statistical data, generally on global samples. Pages are from 1 to
32. The second is based on surveys of reported data (perceptions, sensations, beliefs. Pages are from a to w [that is, a to
v] You can read the two sections separately, or you can use the index to find links between the two. Choose you subject, match
the numbers and letters, and then overlap the pages."--Page [1]
"Frequently, the debate regarding gender equality becomes a clash of opinions, impeding any real inquiry. In The Veil is Seen
Only When it is Lifted, the artist provides accumulated data as an instrument for breaching this impasse. Origoni visually
restructures this conversation, arranging statistics with simple, playful design and breaking up the codex's linear narration.
The book is composed with two studies; their bindings fall on opposite sides of the book. A Coptic-bound section presents
quantitative data and the spiral-bound section reports experience-based data. Viewers are invited to read these parts separately
or simultaneously, pages can be overlapped in patterns that unveil new information." -- https://wsworkshop.org/collection/veil-seen-lifted/ (viewed June 7, 2018)
