A Clot in Time
by Eli Dijkers
LIMITED EDITION BOOK

Dutch photographer Eli Dijkers went to explore his new neighborhood, having moved from his hometown Rotterdam, The Netherlands, to Birmingham, England, when the world, in early 2020, had come to a standstill. Staying within a ray of one kilometer from his home, he discovered empty lanes, streetlights that shone for no-one, a lonely passer-by hurrying to a better place, a ghost in an abandoned city. Photographing with an eye for detail, Dijkers documented a year in which ‘lockdown’ became a familiar saying, in color and in black and white.

Fifty-four of Dijkers’s photographs were selected to be bundled in a limited bibliophile edition ominously titled A Clot in Time. The book will be published by the end of June by Dijl’s Publishing House, Rotterdam.

The number of copies is to be determined on May 31, 2021, at midnight but will be restricted to sixty copies at most, fifty of which will be numbered 1-50 plus ten copies that remain hors commerce I-X. All copies will be signed by the photographer and provided with a unique, signed fine art print of a photograph that was not included in the selection.

Subscription starts today and will end on May 31, 2021 at midnight or as soon as the number of fifty subscribers has been reached.

We offer you this one-off artist’s edition for £50, shipping not included.
