Helena Hladilova

Perdix

2021

PERDIX is a publication that arose from the homonymous exhibition by Helena Hladilova at ALMANAC in Turin.
The book is conceived for all ages, but specifically for an age group ranging from 4 to 8 years old. The stories collected in it are based on the works presented in the exhibition. Each contributor was invited to invent a story starting from the image of one of the works which, in turn, arise from the tales of metamorphosis that Helena has reworked from the bedtime stories she tells to her children.

In between the pages of the texts there are hidden images to color, while the marbled pages serve as a base for drawing and freely illustrating the stories collected in the book.


Contributors: Leonardo Caffo, Arturo and Federico Campagna, Cleo Fariselli, Xiaano, Une and Gaia Fugazza, Sacha Kanah, Maria Grazia and Claudia, Alek O. and Ettore Tolone.

The publication was curated and produced by Guido Santandrea.
The images are graphic elaborations made by Beatrice Sacco based on the works of Helena Hladilova.

Each copy is unique. The marbled pages are all different. The publication is an edition of 100.
