What if I withdraw
Book design: Flo Albrecht

»What if I withdraw and focus solely on myself? Will you stay near me?”

What if I want to withdraw from the world for a moment? What if, I opt out of society, city noise, and conversations for a while? If it all gets too much for me, and silence is the only thing that helps? Will I be alone? Will you still stay with me?

Heinz Janisch’s poetic thoughts enhance the sense of longing for solitude and contemplation expressed in Nicole Vögeli’s dreamy modern artwork. Together, they unfold an impressive kaleidoscope depicting the silence of a single day.

»As an artist, I draw inspiration from everyday life and mostly use digital technology. This leads to an illustration style combining digital illustration with real-world textures.«
