'Closure' is an intricate and interesting [art exhibit](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pure-exhibition) for the [Milton Keynes Gallery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/greenery-unlimited) in England. The premise for the 'Closure' exhibit was to create a [sculpture of interlocking books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nakajimaya-crossing) that could only be separated if the sculpture was broken.

The books look worn and weathered, which gives the overall structure a bit of added character. See more images of 'Closure' at the Milton Keynes Gallery in England above.
