Illuminated books installation by Korean artist Airan Kang. LED lights inside amazing book-shaped sculptures were programmed to continually change brightness and colors.
Notes from the artist’s page:
[...] “Each of Kangs unique book covers are modified appropriations of the original covers rather than an exact replica. The hyper books are then arranged in stacks to show Kangs growing interest in the relationship between text and the imagined literary space that the texts represent. This is further asserted as quoted text from each books in LED scrolls across the surface, making the information contained readily available and accessible to the viewer. Thus the content of each book is automatically visible, suggesting an ultramodern view of knowledge and intellect that is predetermined and entitled, rather than learned over time.”
