The artist/author Natalie d'Arbeloff carries out a series of visual experiments, taking four subjects - water, a pineapple, the hand, eggs - and focuses total attention on each in turn, as if seeing them for the first time. The photographer Ted Sebley provides striking pictures of the subjects and of d'Arbeloff drawings and technical explorations. In the introduction to the book, she says: ' I ask the reader to accompany me on my exploration of a different approach to concentration: an opening out and relaxing of the attention, allowing it to play freely with any idea which hovers in the vicinity of the chosen subject."
