Massive river of 10,000 discarded books flows through Melbourne.
For The Light in Winter Festival, Spanish art collective Luzinterruptus was commissioned to create a work of art that, quite literally, stopped traffic. 10,000 discarded books, donated by public libraries and collected by the Salvation Army, were lit up and then arranged to look like a massive river flowing through the city. On the final night of the installation, visitors were encouraged to take the books home.
