Sandman Can Stop Wearing Suits
Book, 2024
Inspired by museum exhibitions, this book showcases a collection of 50 generated gemstones. Although the stones look very similar to natural stones and one might think that they are photographs, the stones do not actually exist. The book begins with a poem by Antonia Gangi, which is a flowing and moving organic wave of words, reflecting the great variety of colors, shapes and textures of the gemstones and their random creation by the force of nature. The name is inspired by Adam Sandler‘s performance in the film Uncut Gems, which tells the story of a New York jeweler who, in the whirl of gambling addiction, debt, and risky business ventures, risks everything to make big money. Despite Adam Sandler‘s acclaimed portrayal of the charismatic, chaotic protagonist, he wasn‘t even nominated for an Oscar. He tweeted: Bad news: Sandman isn‘t getting any love from the Academy. Good news: Sandman can stop wearing suits.
Hardcover with thread stitching, 14,8 x 21 cm, 170 g matt photo paper
