Perverted Norm, Normal Pervert is a project by artist Kuang-Yi Ku. Inspired by scientific research, it explores the normality and abnormality of sexual activities among humans and snails.
This bilingual book focuses on gender fluidity, depicting the reproductive system, reproductive structure, and mating posture of snails and humans in four chapters with black and white illustrations. On the cover, it attempts to echo the definition of “pervert and normality” explored by the artist by switching the sequence of the Chinese characters “變態的正常.”
The title and the running texts are set in Neue Machina by Pangram Pangram, and Chinese texts are set in Source Han Sans TC.
