There was only one catch

California-based, award-winning photographer David Fokos has an ongoing exhibition at San Diego International Airport called The Book Pages Project. This terrific show is an appreciation of “real” books in their actual physical form—paper pages, fonts, ink, layout—and the powerful contribution books have made to culture. Fokos, who is renowned for his powerful black and white landscape work, wanted to use this project to highlight specific text and to have the viewer see the words themselves as art. You can checkout the entire project online right here.
