"(...) when exercising their bodies supercelesti action on an item, they work to their similarity and also produce something similar to themselves and almost of the same species.

And to better understand this, it should be noted that the Sun produces the Focus bodies saturated with water bodies and urinary crystal ball. "
St. Thomas Aquinas, Treatise on the Philosopher's Stone,
Excellent finesse that distinguishes the design of miniature Colette Baraldi is suitable if the transcription of a whooping oneirism bloody disorder akin to melancholy. Impossible gadgets, objects of horror ed'anatema, traps and similar appliances abstruse instruments of inquisition reinvented in the materials of everyday contemporary world, composing an intricate encyclopedic compendium in which they investigated the matter and liquid alchemy. The assumption that should the transmutation of the external accidents of matter, the revelation of the arcane and the subsequent revelation of the intimate nature of certain household items turned into something else before unknown. The subtle flow of the narrative, a sort of ecstatic "automatic drawing-autobiographical", when split and fragmented, thus describes a laboratory of ingenious tools, a toolbox of ovens, racking, vases, containers, clamps, drills, crucibles, tubes, distillers, which combines elements organic flesh and blood, with every shade of metal, plastics and technology. Similarities in detecting sophisticated, metamorphosis and obscure practices both symbolic and metaphorical, Baraldi Colette comes to an accurate classification in which the design is close to the magic-witchcraft practice-quackery same language of alchemy all categories (technological, cryptographic , imaginative, anthropomorphic, fantasy).
