@complex: One book can change everything. In 2007, Mexican artist Jorge Méndez Blake created The Castle, a 75-foot brick wall built over a single copy of Franz Kafka’s novel. The book causes the wall to bend, creating a subtle curve that reaches all the way to the top. The artwork serves as a powerful metaphor for how even one book can challenge foundations, shift perspectives, and leave a lasting impact on the world. 📸: @jorge_mendez_blake
