Coffins for animals
2010 → limited edition artist book, 10 pieces

Each special edition consists of a precious publication containing 38 drawings of coffins; each designed for a specific animal and organized in alphabetical order. The Bible gives no specific instruction on whether animals have a soul or may be allowed to go to heaven.
The main difference between human beings and animals is that men are made in the image and likeness of God whereas animals aren't. For the Bible to say that men are made in God's likeness and image, means - to me - that human beings are already in a preferencial lane, being capable of spirituality, equipped with a mind, capable of emotions and with an aspect of existance that continues after physical death. Therefore, just like in the best equipped holiday resorts where specific areas are designed to accomodate domestic animals, in this book I have collected a series of illustrations that suppose that animals deserve a little corner of heaven too.
