Description

“The Book. The Form” reflects on a fragment of the book Relational art of Nicolás Bourriaud where it is described the birth of form as Epicuro and Lucrecio did it.  The project proposes, as a book, the construction of the book itself and its existence as a primary conceptual and material process.

The final result is an artist’s book that takes shape during his own process of making. In a preliminary stage the project included a book binding workshop in which it would be born as a physical object, and it would spread to others by a sharing knowlege experience, but it couldn’t happen as I planned, so the edition of the book exists but I made it by my own. This project was exhibited at La Caja Galeria in Taller Trez, as a part of the exhibition Trez con Z during Artbo Weekend in Bogotá, Colombia.

The Book:

Atoms fall parallel in the vacuum slightly diagonal,

Falling, a fortuitous detour causes an encounter with the neighbor atom.

Encounters bring clash. And with clashes,

the birth of the world.

The Form:

The world persists in form of book.
