Their bodies never physically leave the unheated apartment building, but their gazes do. Slowly, they explore their inner and outer worlds.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSwiss artist Katja Jug’s intriguing book “Frozen Unfrozen” (termed a ‘poster novel’ by the artist) tells the story of this multi-layered encounter using photography, drawing and typography.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe story progresses as the reader continues through the book, thereby unfolding one by one the loosely interlocked, interconnected pages of the 33 large-scale posters. This approach to storytelling, with its physical, almost interventionist nature, is meant to resemble echoes of silent movies and their montage technique.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e“Like on a catwalk they take frozen poses, which reminds us of a voguing dancer. The interplay of their bodies and gazes transform their states of aggregation and being. An interplay of freezing and thawing, solidification and re-release occurs.”\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEdition Fink, 2021\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSoftcover, 64pp\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eEnglish \u0026amp; Chinese texts\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e420 x 297mm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tenderbooks","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43522835284186,"sku":"","price":65.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0488\/8029\/files\/Tenderbooks-48_0d034105-b568-4c3d-8dd1-1e14b1044827.jpg?v=1728050342","url":"https:\/\/tenderbooks.pro\/products\/frozen-unfrozen-a-poster-novel-katja-jug","provider":"Tenderbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
