SILENCE
„Silent books“ have established themselves as books without text that deal with a topic only through the sequence of illustrations. Now, what would a „silent book“ look like with silence itself as its topic? In our accelerated world, the need for silence is increasing. Silence does not only mean acoustic silence, but also the absence of visual stimuli, information, stress or even thoughts – inner silence. Turning the pages immerses you in various scenes of silence. If you open yourself up to a mindful perception, you can find silence everywhere, even in a busy and noisy city.
