"The world around us was not created once, but is created afresh every time an original artist is born"
(Marcel Proust)

 

I was fascinated by the universe of the artist Manuzio, a world that magically collects accounts of travels, cultures and religions which are then "scaled down" into bookcases. Seeing our lives in small scale is always exciting and gives one a sense of peace and tranquility. I suggest you send me some important moments of your life (photos, book titles, hobbies, passions and so on): Manuzio will enclose them in a miniature world.
