  1. 171 Reading

  2. Elizabeth Sagan and James Trevino

  3. Books inspire us in every aspect. They give us strength, imagination, wisdom and many other virtues. Books are artworks themselves but they can transform into other works of arts in some ways. Elizabeth Sagan and James Trevino are book lovers and “Bookstagrammers”. They use books to arrange creative scenes. Elizabeth Sagan and her friend James Trevino create amazing book scenes. James has 190k followers and Elizabeth 94k followers on Instagram. Sometimes they become guests on each other’s pages

  4. Each book tells us its story. But, as paradoxical as it may sound, a hundred books put together can tell a lot more than a hundred stories. More precisely - to show it. The best friends and passionate lovers of reading Elizabeth Sagan and James Trevino are sure of this. With the help of their huge libraries and inexhaustible fantasy, they - separately and together - create original installations, where each book cover looks like a stroke of paint.

  5. “I’m Elizabeth Sagan. I'm 23 and live in Romania. I've recently completed Law and decided to take a few months off to focus on a creative project that has a lot to do with books”

  6. Self-described “bookstagrammer” Elizabeth Sagan pays homage to her love of literature by arranging her huge collection into imaginative book art displays. Sagan has been sharing her love of books with her 100,000+ Instagram followers for several years, but never seems to run out of creative ideas. Each colored book cover acts like a brush stroke. When cleverly combined with others, they create literary scenes (best viewed from above). (https://mymodernmet.com/book-art-elizabeth-sagan/)

  7. James Trevino doesn't just read a lot of books, he also collects them and turns them into works of art. Who said print was dead? He's is a bookstagrammer, who shares his love of books with his fans through conversation and colorful self portraits that takes hours to put together

  8. "The fact that the reactions have been so positive is a bit overwhelming, but also heartwarming."

  9. “My name is James. I'm from Romania. I'm 24 years old, and I do this thing called Bookstagram”
