Moving Stillness
'Moving Stillness' conveys the depth of classical Indian dance through Simon Richardson’s stunning images. Simon has photographed dance and performance for the last thirty years, with a particular focus on, and passion for, South Asian classical dance.
The book design involves careful curation and editing of images to create a cohesive and visually engaging narrative. The 'Moving Stillness' namestyle suggests motion by the italicisation of the ‘O’, while image placement is strategically considered to highlight movement and form, with pairings chosen to enhance colour harmony and visual flow across the pages.
Sections are divided by detail shots being placed on colour-blocked spreads, using a palette derived directly from the images themselves, then taken through to the end papers.
