SUPER NEIGHBOUR

I'm going away in the counrtyside
to prepare many interesting things,
I'll be back next week, with good news
and good stuffs!!

Speaking of green and fresh air,

these are the pictures of Alessandro,

my super neighbour, making window boxes

he offered me for my 30th birthday,

in the early morning, ignoring the hudge

hangover of the party the night before.

Grazie ancora Ale!!!

mercredi 2 mars 2011

I did and still do have favorite objects that inspire me. But the one I always kept with me as a child was a book called Le plaisir des mots. It was a simple selection of beautiful, strange, unusual or curious words, each one with its explanation and an image, a sort of refined dictionnary, indeed it is subtitled Illustrated poetic dictionnary. I was always making lists of the words I prefered, of course the lists were constantly changing. I remember myself spending hours pronouncing them and then trying to place them wisely into my conversations. I also often included them in my poems. I have no idea where the book is now, but now that I am writing about it I really want to go back at my parents' and retrieve that feeling I had, contemplating the beauty of the language for the first time.

Thanks Cerré for giving birth to the idea of this post

TIME'S RUNNING AND DAMAGING

I can see

how old is every skecthbook

from how its rubber band

gets slackened

BACK TO THE ROOTS - LA MACHINE NE FAIT PAS TOUT

Last week, I took part in a workshop proposed by Alexis Rom and Claude Marzotto from Atelier Vostok. We have been invited to experiment the DIY offset printing technique using two-colour process. I was over-excited to meet the smell and the texture of the fresh offset ink again.
