死亡之病

The Malady of Death

The book was a new Chinese translation of the 1982 novella The Malady of Death by legendary French author Marguerite Duras. It was part of a conceptual project by Korean artist Haegue Yang for the exhibition Mobile M+: Live Art.

Collaborating with another designer, who do not know Chinese, our role was to take care the typesetting of Traditional Chinese characters, as well as the consultation and coordination of the printing progress.
