The exhibition of illustrations inspired by Stanisław Lem’s – the true visionary, philosopher and writer – Mortal Engines, published for the first time in Estonia. The works of a group of distinguished contemporary illustrators are shown in a surprising way. The constellation of wooden crystals holds a bunch of keys to visual mysteries. Fragments, bits and understatements are lurking in the aura of mathematical oddity…

The exhibition was shown at the Children’s Literature Center in Tallinn, and it will soon go on tour in Estonia and Scandinavia.
