Le royaume du vide #[nn]

From Éditions Cornélius, Olivier Texier's Le Royaume du Vide presents a quietly unsettling image right on its cover: a seemingly ordinary family — two children, a woman, and a mustachioed man in a diamond-patterned vest, with a dog peeking in at the edge — standing together, yet the faces of the children and woman are conspicuously blank, erased of any features. That striking visual tension between suburban normalcy and eerie absence sets a thoughtful, darkly playful tone that feels entirely at home in Cornélius's adventurous 2019 catalog.
