Before me. The book

Prima di me
by 
Luisa Mattia
Mook

 

“Before me there was nothing. Actually, that's wrong. Everyone was there before me”. Through the clear voice of a young child, Luisa Mattia takes us on a journey to listen to the sounds of a life just beginning, in a whirlwind of discovery, intuition, joy and questions in the face of the magnitude of Creation, a moving cosmos that unfolds before the newborn child, teaching her to exist, to think of herself as part of it, as someone made of the same materials: water, wind, light, storms and fire – right down to the most mysterious material of all, the spoken word. This masterly accomplishment is accompanied by playful, strong and festive abstract images created by Mook, in other words by Francesca Crisafulli and Carlo Nannetti, artists, sculptors, engravers and designers of many talents.
