a book by the In Power group
Bronze Medal at the European Design Awards
A book with a ... hole.
A book different from different people that makes you look differently.
A hole. Something missing. A void. A weakness.
An opening. A way out. A power.
A book with a hole in it. A mask, a pair of gyros, a way to see things differently from the inside.
The illustrations by Analiza Aza were mixed and matched (sometimes not so much) with typographic distortions in a layout that at first seems chaotic but manages to support the richness of the messages and personal stories that the members of the En Forever group share.
According to Eleni Demopoulou, the artistic director of the group, this is a book "that helps readers get to know us and helps them feel that diversity is a normal situation, as long as you approach it in this way."
The title of the book "Strength or Weakness" is not present on the cover.
The hole is there to illustrate the question - it is something that is missing.
A paralysis, a weakness or a way out, an opening, a new perspective, a strength.
Before you read it, please open it wide before your eyes and look through it.
In front of a mirror the results will be better, we guarantee it.
