The Book of Time is a visual diary composed entirely of numerals, where each minute of the 24-hour day is represented. It explores the interaction between people, time and the environment during the pandemic, reflecting how time, while objective, is deeply shaped by human emotions and behaviors. The book presents temporality as a poetic sentiment, documenting occurrences of time over the past 40 days. It also illustrates the materiality of text, creating a space where the text comes alive and offers an immersive reading experience.
“ The Book of Time expressing the passage of time as a poetic sentiment. Constructing numerals in a concrete poetry style, the project offered a unique perspective on Xinyi’s passion for graphic design. ”

「The Book of Time は、時間の流れを、時間を示す数字をコンクリート・ポエトリー風に構築することで、詩的な情緒として表現しているもので、キョウさんのグラフィックデザインに対する熱意を異なる方向から理解する一助となる作品です。」
