Aranyalmás Book is an artist’s book conceived as a tactile object and a visual poem.
It is assembled from crumpled paper, sewn with jute threads, and incorporates photographs of objects and actions from the project Golden Apples.

The book has no rigid binding or fixed form.
Each page exists as an individual fragment that can be turned, revisited, and shifted. Through handling and viewing, the book gradually changes: it wears down, loosens, and retains traces of touch and time.

Turning the pages becomes part of the work itself.
The sound of rustling paper, the resistance of the material, and the weight of the pages shape the experience of reading as a physical act rather than a purely visual one.

Aranyalmás Book engages with themes of memory, choice, and letting go.
Golden apples appear here as images of attention and gift — something that can be found, held briefly, and then released.
