A collection of photographs by Ahn Jun, a Seoul based artist active internationally. The book features 88 images with a high-speed shutter capturing the moment when an apple is thrown by her own family. 

During the editing process, only those images that imply the inevitability of falling and the suspension of space in defiance of gravity were selected, aiming to expose the transcendence that emerges when context is lost. 

The cover cloth has a foil-stamped silhouette of an apple, while the body paper has a slightly yellowish tint to evoke the changing hues over time. The layout has plenty of white space for the image of the work.
