Isola Comacina
Within the framework of a residency in Italy,
Isola Comacina in 2014, I started doing research on a book titled 'Roman Architecture' by J. B. Ward-Perkins. Layer by layer, I deconstruct the book and connect pages, try to dig into the
structure of the material and content. It's kind of
archaeological autopsy bringing new material to
the surface.
