Can art permeate science?
The pursuit of this illusory paradox is what keeps CaCO3 components tied in a scientific art formula which follows UNI principles – typical of the restoration art.
The artwork is shaped by light and music, which naturally spread tiles like autumn’s leaves, and by the time, that mechanically wipes these ones out.
The matter excavation in layers often brings to light new scientific results to surface in art forms. Negative or positive photographs, which attest time relativity, shorten any distance with the historical past.
Glass, limestone, mortar, ground, oxide: here are some of the elements used by the alchemical ensemble until now, drafting, an experiment after the other, the pages of a new manual called Neo-archeology.
