Zindato, who was born in Italy,\u00a0began the project after stopping by\u00a0a small shop in Mexico City, where he stumbled on an\u00a0album with thirty-one sheets of handcrafted paper from Oaxaca, made with regional plants. He decided to make a \u201cvisual poem\u201d with its contents,\u00a0cutting out the sheets and\u00a0painting them in vibrant colors with fine-haired brushes and nib pens.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
