The Prague-based artist Matej Kren has created a number of gigantic book sculptures, fascinating pieces for all literary folk to check out.

In the installation Passage, the artist used mirrors, light, and thousands of books to create a surreal chamber of texts.

Here’s more about the Book Cell Project, the work of art pictured above: “The metaphor indicating that all those books are part of and enrich the universal editorial production, gains visibility in the blend orchestrated in the construction of Book Cell, between the Foundation’s publications and several other books from around the world.” (Via Flavorwire)
