It collects 12 postcards depicting monuments and views of Milan, each meticulously cut into concentric circles. Slightly offset, the circles create an optical sensation of movement, transforming static photographic images into small kinetic compositions. Produced in collaboration with the legendary printer Sergio Tosi, the publication is a unique act of appropriation and transformation of found ephemera.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe publication was exhibited in 2023 as part of \"Folded Cities\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/metabooks.art\/cdn\/shop\/files\/FOLDED-CITIES_2023.pdf?v=11773327600038621070\" style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e at Studio 454 in Venice, alongside other twentieth-century investigations of the urban environment, including \u003cem\u003eVenezia.
