ProfessionalWhy did you make this work:
My work has been largely influenced by Borges. I though it was time to make him a well deserved and respectful tribute. I chose “LA BIBLIOTECA DE BABEL,” not just because I found this short story fascinating, but for the fact that his rich description of this “Universe” that he calls “The library,” stuck in my mind so bad, that I needed to take some “rest” tangible form.
How was the illustration used: This illustration was created with the only purpose to expand Elgreen Project ongoing universe; and to create a new visual narrative, that could keep informing its peculiar nature.
How did you make this work: This Vector illustration was created 100% with the Adobe Illustrator software.
