What a book turns out to be ?
LEFTIE PRESS
Leftie press is a studio for book and publishing house in Seoul. It is initiated and run by Miru Bahc to expand her practices on book and printed matter. Under the questions of what a book is and what a book turns out to be, she explores the structure of a book ─ forms, pages, surfaces(textures), texts, colors, layout and experiments with its way of working as gesture, language, archive visualization, installation, et cetera in relation to the space. All books and practices at Leftie press are both trial and proposal to the concept of book as a form of art and material in itself.
MIRU BAHC
