For a Fleeting Moment

For a Fleeting Moment is the first book by Swiss photographer Simone Kappeler, devoted exclusively to her Polaroid works created between 2011 and 2023. The photographs – sometimes delicate and dreamlike, sometimes strange and distant – were shot using various types of cameras and films, including infrared, disposable, and instant formats.

The book was created as part of a collaboration with Japanese musician Tomotsugu Nakamura, whose minimalist soundscapes are composed of acoustic fragments, electronics, and field recordings. A download code for his music on Bandcamp is included with each copy.

Published by French label IIKKI, this hardcover book is a one-time edition of 700 hand-numbered and hand-stamped copies. No reprints.

We pack books to arrive in the condition described: protected corners, rigid backing, paper cushioning, and a sturdy outer package. Heavier or collectible editions receive an extra layer of protection. Any defects are documented on the product page—packing doesn’t hide condition, it reduces transit risk.

We ship from Germany, usually on the next business day after payment. Germany: typically 2–5 business days, EU: often 3–7 business days; international depends on destination and customs. Tracking is included for all services and is provided once the parcel is handed over to the carrier. During peak periods, transit times may extend. See the Shipping Policy.

Returns are possible within 30 days of delivery (e.g., if the item doesn’t match the description or you changed your mind). Please contact us before sending anything back—we’ll provide the return address and the best return option. Items should be returned in the same condition as received. Once the return is received and checked, we refund to the original payment method. See the Refund Policy.
