Paris 1963/1965
Project Overview:
This volume is the definitive collection for all 74 of Sokolsky’s printed images from the Bubble and Fly series, including more than a dozen previously unreleased and alternate visions of his iconic series, behind the scenes documentary photos, and outtakes, and an intimate insight into Sokolsky’s process and inspiration as he developed his incomparable Fly series.
Scope:
Paris 1963 / Paris 1965 was printed and sold in three limited editions.
My Role:
I was a part of the team that designed the cover, layout, and interior pages. I worked directly under the lead designer and pitched concepts that went into the final product.
Process:
There was deep inspiration taken from the Art Noveau movement that originated in Paris, France. Some key elements from the movement are natural forms, such as the sinuous curves of plants and flowers. The photographs were taken in Paris and we wanted to pay homage through the symmetry, font, and floral glyph choices.
