The Greatest Stories Ever Toldis an ongoing project about publishing and translation. Each book is based on the English original (2015), a collection of fables, fairy tales and stories written by the artist Ho Tam. All illustrations and collages are derived directly from international currency.
The Japanese edition of The Greatest Stories Ever Told is a colourful book bound by black book tape. Each page, including the cover, is printed on off-white drawing paper. With its simple and utilitarian design, the book shows a great sense of delicacy and sensitivity of the artwork in its striking sensibility.— Ho Tam
