CHIMERA

A creative summer 2023 exercise shared with the grand children of my brother Luca at their estate, La Selva. The thing was to discover a new animal.

To succeed, we would search for it among the images of molded shapes, with wax, listening to the fairy tale Eloine and Marguerite, ages ten and nine, they would write together.

Afterward, the images of the viewpoints of the created shapes would be transmuted into that of the new animal.
They were joined by Marguerite’s little brother, three-year-old Sebastian, and all three, listening to it, model blindfolded the wax with no intention of representing anything, but letting themselves go.
The new animal received the name of CHIMERA.
