Old as Stone, Hard as Rock

Viac o knihe

Through powerful visual storytelling, Alessandro Sanna examines the duality of human nature—creation and destruction. The narrative begins with a stone that symbolizes both violence and artistry, as it transitions from a weapon to a tool for building. Sanna's artwork chronicles humanity's tumultuous history of war, reflecting on events from ancient battles to modern tragedies, including the atomic bomb and the September 11 attacks. Accompanied by an introduction from poet Ammiel Alcalay, this work invites contemplation on mankind's persistent cycle of havoc and beauty.
