Trata-se de um fotolivro feito de pequenos fotolivros, sendo cada um num formato diferente dentro dentro da mancha, por vezes variando também o papel. O conjunto de imagens revela um fotógrafo detalhista, versátil e aberto a experimentações, sobretudo formais e com a luz.

Nosso Lar, Brasília explores the relationship between Spiritism and Modernism in Brazilian architecture. Central to the book is a systematic comparison between the spiritist city of Nosso Lar (1944), as described by the medium Chico Xavier; and the modernist city of Brasília (1956), the country’s capital as designed by Lúcio Costa and Oscar Niemeyer.

Jonas Staal (1981) is a visual artist whose work deals with the relationship between art, democracy and propaganda. He is the author of among others
Post-Propaganda (Amsterdam: Foundation BKVB, 2009);
Power?… To Which People?!(Heijningen: Jap Sam Books, 2010) and Closed Architecture (Eindhoven: Onomatopee, 2011).
