One Day illustrates the passage of a single day in a picturesque mountain landscape. From page to page, the landscape remains largely unchanged, but the colors shift as the day progresses. The visual narrative starts in darkness, moves to full daylight, then slowly dims to twilight and a star filled sky before ending as it began: in total darkness.

The book touches on the rhythm of change and repetition in natural cycles, and the very nature of existence: colorful activity bookended by darkness.

Elisheva Biernoff’s work is about searching, and paying attention to things that escape notice. She employs many media—small paintings, prints, collages, and large-scale installations—to register things that are lost, distant or overlooked.
