 <\/p>\n

Slovakian Matej Kren<\/a> is the artist behind the “Idiom” instalation of books. A spiraling tower of hundreds of stacked books got its stage under the Prague Municipal Library<\/a>. \u00a0Idiom is like a huge Jenga tower; books are stacked , forming a colorful rainbow cylinder that reached the celing of the library. A tear shaped opening is on the side of the tower.<\/p>\n

A mirror has been placed on the tower\u2019s floor, replicating the experience of looking down into the waters of a wishing well. Another mirror caps the ceiling, creating an infinity effect.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Matej-Kren1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Matej Kren <\/a>often uses books to connect viewers with the feeling of infinity, exploring their structural use as well their application as tools of knowledge. As a massive structural installation, the Idiom, hydes its little secret; the wisdom of knowledge which in our case lies there, within its pages! Happy new year everyone!<\/p>\n
