I wanted to create a stack of books so that somebody could come into the gallery and think they're just looking at a regular stack of books, but then as they got closer they would see this rough hole carved into it, and wonder what was happening, wonder why, and think about the material of the book.
Volevo creare una pila di libri in modo  che chi entra nella galleria pensa di guardare una normale pila di libri, ma poi avvicinandosi, si accorge  che vi è un buco intagliato, e si chiede perché, e pensa al materiale del libro.
