The artist created this book for an installation exhibit in Pombal Palace (Oeiras, 2016). “Muse Polímnia is associated with the representation of several areas of knowledge, namely Geometry. The book dedicated to her consists of 6 pages of wood and paper with manipulable geometric shapes that, in the interaction and overlap of its different pages, create planes, lines, intersections, tangencies and imaginary spaces.”
