art book
"love birds" -
group exhibition.
mixed media
(cement, labeling tape, rice paper)
dimensions: 9cm x 9cm

a concrete ball, heavy and bulky material. a ball that rolls and opens. a hypothetical "book" that tests the symbolism of its material and what it describes. a strip of text is revealed when the ball opens in two. one moment is enough to unite two pieces and an eternity to separate them. the time that theoretically exists and the eternity that stops it. a sonnet on time, unity and the moment. moment at the limit defined by the vastness of an eternity.
moreover, we also created a supplementary "virtual book" in video. in the caption of the exhibition, there is a qr code leading to that video. in that sense, spectators can browse the art book.
