The artist translates his universe of plastic forms onto paper, enriching it with unprecedented chromaticism: the Artist's book is an endless ground for experimentation! It is painting and sculpture, it is story, word, image. We articulate a narrative by superimposing signs, forms and colors. We compose pages from the works in Arnaldo Pomodoro's Studio, create stencils to make a sampler of geometric shapes, then with colors we define solids and voids, flat and solid shapes. We experiment with a simple but impressive printing technique to get to the point of building a classy artist's book.
