A funny photo project about books that not everyone will understand
Designer and art director Pierre Bethel created a multifaceted photo project in which he tried to transfer the content of famous literary works into reality with the help of facial expressions, gestures and characteristic outfits.
Good books always make readers fully immerse themselves in a new world. And each story becomes a reality, and the fate of each character becomes your own. Pierre Bethel, a designer and art director from Toulouse, thinks so.
In his free time from work and projects, Pierre creates self—portraits in which, with the help of Photoshop and unrestrained imagination, he does incredible things with himself - in general, he comes off to the fullest. Pierre masterfully and not without irony revived them and transferred the plots from the pages to reality. Facial expressions, gestures, outfits — all this is designed to convey the content of famous works.
