AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

EXLIBRIS FENT EQUILIBRIS (a pun between Ex Libris (the seal of ownership on a book) and the act of balancing to avoid falling)

This work is a visual reflection on the fragility of culture in the contemporary world. Through an apparently unstable structure of books, reading is presented as an act of resistance and survival. The central figure, literally made of words, reminds us that we are what we read and that the critical spirit remains alive thanks to this constant and precarious balance between paper and memory.
Created with mixed technique: books, paper, resin, latex and oil paint

It is delivered with a certificate of authenticity
