A-chan Salt'n Vinegar [Paperback]

A-chan created the images in Salt'n Vinegarin her home in New York and on travels between 2011 and 2013. Continuing her eloquent unassuming reflections on her immediate surroundings, A-chan depicts the unexpected beauty of water streaming from a faucet, a figure skater caught mid-pirouette, street scenes, supermarket shelves and a lone packet of potato chips, which lends its title to this book. Salt'n Vinegarfeatures both color and black-and-white images, suggesting that the independent threads of A-chan's color photo book Vibrant Homeand her black-and-white Off Beat, both published by Steidl in 2012, have now found resolution in book form.…simple, commonplace scenes — subway platforms, dirty snow, a pack of frozen beans — in a way that you've never seen them before.
