Despite the small size of the copper, this etching evokes a familiar world. The books and notebooks appear as a heterogeneous composition of shapes and volumes in an indefinite space. Born by chance, the diagonals intertwine creating a beautiful balance. The outline of the tip reveals, with delicate tones, the patina and the wear of time. This discreet ensemble seduces us with its elegant harmony.
