Lo stupore è nuovo ogni giorno (Astonishment is new every day), 2008

Lo stupore è nuovo ogni giorno (Astonishment Is New Every Day) alludes to the process of its own making. A sheet of aluminum with a pattern of holes scattered over its surface is positioned on the ground and covered with talcum powder, then propped on one side with a vertical stick. The talcum powder slides down and passes through the holes, forming an image of a starry sky on the ground - a celestial map representing the moment of the artist`s birth. And so the idea of the body and its gestures, understood as the source of creativity, are tied to the idea of the cosmos as creation and incessant transformation.
