Unseen, "The essencial is invisible to the eyes” by Gralha Azul Group - SOLD

We produced this book seeking concepts of what would be invisible to us, in this difficult moment that we go through, as humanity. What can not be seen and affects us so much? It came to our memory, the famous phrase of Saint Exupèry, from the book THE LITTLE PRINCE: THE ESSENTIAL IS INVISIBLE TO THE EYES and it was then the source from which our inspiration poured out. In addition to the various VIRUSES that circulate around the planet, there is an infinite diversity of feelings, which are actually the driving springs of civilization or those responsible for our destruction. While some harm us, others elevate us and have the power to rebuild, save, strengthen, give us courage and good cheer to face the most difficult situations. Based on this concept, we develop this work, following the lines of action that always build our poetics.
