Common Objects brings together the work of 97 photographers from across the globe to explore the role of the image and its ability to shape perception. Organized not by theme or geography but by visual association, the book draws on the logic of the reference catalog—a structure built for sustained, democratic looking. Within it, photographs from vastly different cultures and contexts find themselves in unexpected proximity, generating connections and contrasts that no single image could produce alone. In this format, the photographs enter into a subtle dialogue with one another, revealing how context, sequence, and framing shape perception, and how the ordinary is never quite as familiar as it seems.
➔ Softcover, 196 pages
➔ 6" x 9" perfect bound
➔ Full-color, offset printing
➔ 100lb uncoated, 120lb uncoated cover
➔ Printed in the USA
Available for pre-order at uncleprojects.com
