NLXL Chandelier Black Wallpaper

Artist Ekaterina Panikanova feels passionately about the subject of her artworks featuring books as capsules of memory, carrying with them the history of their former readers. She spends time reading all the books she collects before deciding how to arrange them and whether or not to paint or print on them. Among those featured in her design are manuscripts and journals which really capture a little bit of history. Intriguingly, her design is peppered with symbols which become metaphors for various concepts. For example, she uses antlers to convey animal instinct and a pie to represent tradition and the rules of society.
