3D mapping, part of the "Hidden Letters" project, will decorate the facade of the National Library "Sts. Cyril and Methodius" on May 23. The event is dedicated to May 24 - Day of the holy brothers Cyril and Methodius, the Bulgarian alphabet, education and culture and the Slavic letters, the Reading Sofia Foundation reports. 

The visual narrative created by Polina Gerasimova (Poliforma) is dedicated to language as the home of the nuances of communication, identity and understanding others. The main characters are the letters, as their graphic image expresses the specific sounds that make up our language. The poetry for the 3D mapping was written by Stefan Ikoga and the music is by Kan Wakan.
