“The happiness of the raindrop is dying in the river”
2023
Book, plaster, acrylic paint, fabric

The raindrop is aware that the ultimate goal of its existence is not to die on the sidewalk, but rather to end up inside the river, to be part of the flow that then reaches the sea
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.
