"De divina proportione"
2016
Book, plaster, acrylic paint, metal
42 x 42 x 42 cm
The book has its own golden ratio. Inserted in a solid geometry like those shapes studied by Leonardo da Vinci, it could be part of the Renaissance treatise by Luca Pacioli from which the title takes inspiration.
LibriBianchi are sculptures created using real books destined for disposal, giving them a new life. Covered in white, each book becomes an icon of all books, telling stories, emotions, and feelings. It may seem like a mute sculpture, but it is not; it silently screams to be read—not with the eyes, but with the heart, as the Little Prince says.
