Zoom
Book • 1995
In 'Zoom', Istvan Banyai employs a unique 'zooming out' technique where each subsequent page pulls back to reveal the context of the previous scene, often in unexpected ways.
Starting with an abstract image, the book progresses through various scenes, including a farm, a ship, a city street, and eventually outer space.
This visual trickery invites readers to consider their world from different perspectives, making it a fascinating and philosophical adventure for readers of all ages.
