Jason Nocito’s personal work is some of the photography I relate to the most, initially being exposed to him through his connection as a former Vancouver resident. Pud II, designed by Ari Marcopoulos and Camilla Venturini of Ordinary Books, is a companion to Nocito's first release in this series, which will eventually form a trilogy. Built around the same large format photos of multicoloured NYC puddles in all their trash-filled glory, the second volume is also interspersed with supporting imagery that often comes off stoned, sometimes voyeuristic, and completely idiosyncratic.
