To me, the Cena by Leonardo Da Vinci and the famous picture shot in
Hiroshima illustrate our society’s ambivalence.

Religion and nuclear power symbolize both genius and excess;
they are two constructions of Human Being, which can also destroy him.

On nOsTRA CENA, like the man's shadow imprinted on the wall during
Hiroshima blast, only the outlines of the Cena characters are engraved
on a thin concrete sheet using a Color Engraving process.

Only the finger of the apostle on the left of the Christ, known as sign of
the future betrayals, is focused with a black rectangle.

I have conceived this artwork as a palimpsest on human history.
