BOOKFACE - Corpus Libris
A cinematic interpretation of the “bookface” style.
This short was conceived in collaboration with the creative team of Erlangen City’s public library.
For two days we were carefully lining up faces, objects and body parts –
each time trying to create a perfect melding of life and art.

The term "Corpus Libris" has become a synonym for "bookface".
"Corpus" is Latin for "body" and "Libris" means "in the books".
