(Singapore): Work, 2003. First edition. Softcover. 30.5cm by 22cm. Unpaginated. Super cool and scarce issue of Werk (autumn / winter 2003/04) issued in collaboration with Comme des Garcons. This iconic issue is an n exploration of the construction, symbolism, and abstraction of the shirt—reimagined through experimental print and material design. The issues features the work of the works of Fiona Cheong, Agathe de Bailliencourt, Cher Him, Church Brothers, Clang, Don Wong, G.T. Gan, Geoff Ang, Johnny Khoo, Kirby Koh, and Yoshiko Seino. A near fine copy in glossy wrappers, each example was hand-assembled, and no two are entirely alike. A landmark in independent publishing and a masterwork of tactile design.
