Bichosos (Bugsful)

by Manuel Marín

Description

This book is an allegory of flat strokes, whose slopes reveal tridimensional bugs, blissful to show us their transparent shapes. A reading that goes beyond the visual and takes us away from these tiny beings whose geometry increases before our eyes. The line takes us through their folds and extensions, and over to the pages which will be swarming with bugs!
