I was invited by art director Andre Weller to create five books to be part of the scenography of the play "Lição nº18" (Lesson Nº 18), from the author Doc Comparato. The play is in the theater "Poeira" www.teatropoeira.com.br/site/, Rio de Janeiro.
The books represent the manuscripts of "La Hadriana" book by Luigi Groto, that according to some would have inspired Shakespeare to write Romeo and Juliet.
