Good Morning Babilonia, Galleria Marella, Beijing.
2007





The figure of a flowering cherry tree by the seventeenth century Chinese miniature painter has been applied to the inside of the window of the Marella gallery in space 798 in Peking. The figure is composed of hundreds of pieces of transparent sticker, each one a little Renaissance Florentine heraldic coat of arms. An exchange of ideograms between two cultures.
