2022年5月，陳藝堂於nos:bookspace舉行「一杯池塘」攝影展。展覽依一系列關鍵字分類，沖晒並展示350多幅照片，每幅40版次，供現場觀眾選購，及參與編輯《一杯池塘》攝影集。
 
展覽結束後，nos:books 根據現場觀眾所選照片的數據，整理出最多人挑選的40幅 (A Cut)與最少人挑選的40幅(B Cut)照片，結合成本書《A Cut of Etang》。
 
本書內頁分割成上下兩半，顯示眾人選材的迥異與趣味；上下自由翻頁，增加觀賞照片的互動與樂趣。
 
 
In May 2022, Etang Chen’s photography exhibition “A Cup of Etang” took place at nos:bookspace. The photographer developed the photographs, showing more than 350 pieces of them, each in an edition of 40, available for sale. The audiences purchased them and co-edited the book A Cup of Etang.
 
After the exhibition, nos:books surveys the audience’s edits, sorting them into 40 most selected photographs (A Cut) and 40 least selected photographs (B Cut), compiling this book A Cut of Etang.
 
The pages of this book is cut in upper and lower halves, showing the interesting differences in the audience’s choices. And the free navigation of pages brings you more joy of reading.
