Adelaide Cioni - I see me. And you and you and you

Adelaide Cioni I see me. And you and you and you Les Cerises, 2021. 120 pages English / Italian Like new condition. More books for children on my page –––––––– I see me. I see my hands, knees, belly, and legs. I'm a girl. I'm a boy. I see myself as I will one day be: with bigger feet, and funny hair on my skin. I see me and when I look at me, I know that I see a little bit of you, too. Designed as a picture book or manual on the body: a multifaceted body, presented to us through details and fragments. The illustrations show parts of the body, the whole body, at all ages, from all backgrounds, but never the face, because, as happens when we look at ourselves without a mirror, we see ourselves in fragments and cannot see our own face. The body that Adelaide Cioni presents to us in this book is a naked body to be looked at, because by discovering ourselves, we also discover and understand others. Adelaide Cioni (Bologna, 1976) lives in Umbria. After a long period working with the shapes of words as a translator of American literature, in the past few years she has dedicated herself to the shapes of images through lines and colors. Les Cerises' books do not contain words, but rather speak the language of images. They are made in collaboration with artists, designers, and architects, and published in limited editions.
