Housed in a black bound casing complete with red embossed lettering and a matching silk ribbon, the book opens with a title page, on which Lean lists the different iPhone models he shot the contents of 256 GB on: 6, 8, X, and SE. The next page lists out the chapters in order, followed by an entire table of contents of each image included in the book; titles include 'F*ck You,' 'Holy Trinity,' 'Air Jordan 12' and 'Boy life in EU.' To close out, Lean leaves a note that reads: 'I buy a lot of phones and lose a lot of phones. I spend more time in hotels than in the places I live in. It feels like collecting these photographs and memories. I hope it will be a bigger photograph of my life and maybe bring some inspiration and love to some. This is what I try to do.' Take an exclusive closer look at some of the pages of 256 GB in the gallery above and get your hands on a copy while they're still available at Lean'sworldaffairswebsite.
