El cielo como abismo | Guillermo Núñez

 

In this artists’ book, Guillermo explores pain, death and human nature, the one that has destroyed the beauty of existence in many occasions throughout history.

Through quotations, historical facts and poetic texts of his authorship, Núñez gives account of a chronology, both personal and universal, of violence, coldness and suffering. These texts appear on the page as small lights that get mixed with drawings, at certain moments these seem to show bodies hanging from their feet, and which on their different degrees of presence, the author adds colour to.
