Japanese photographer Hiroshi Sugimoto often takes a scientific and experimental approach to his practice, especially in Lightening Fields, where he directly exposed photographic dry plates with electrical discharges.

French scientist turned philosopher Gaston Bachelard is another epitome of an ambidextrous practice. In his 1957 book The Poetics of Space, he bridges the gap between poetry and architecture.

This handbound book juxtaposes their work as a tribute to interdisciplinary practices. I hope that by combining two masters of combination, the piece will validate others looking to bridge distinct fields.
