The intention for this images was to avoid symmetry and create a dynamic rhythm on reading, it has some Art Nuveau influence on it´s aesthetic proposal. This book was produced on the context of the solo show Three is a magic number .

Bertone´s practice use geometric abstraction as a way of reflecting our vulnerability and uncertainty, as a way of understanding and also inventing the world that surrounds us.
