Jaume Plensa represents the man as a collective, participating into a dialogue between the visual form and the language. He tries to put on shape the relationship he maintains with the human being, that’s why he draws a tangible entity. Jaume Plensa’s objective as an sharing act, is that the observer identifies himself with the characters represented. Bring to life human beings through a great variety of existences, but always on their true dimensions. It has to be a source of emotion and creation. That’s why Plensa himself writes “my artwork is their memory”, he writes to free them.

The book comes together with a sculpture case of rigid molded polyurethane with a matte white mineral fill finish, it closes using neodymium magnets. The sculpture case consists of two bodies 32 x 50 cm each. Additionally, a black jesmonite base with the artist's name in relief is included.

Jaume Plensa considers the studio as an extension of his head. The place where ideas are born and where these ideas become reality.
