About this artwork
The interpretation of a work of art can vary depending on the viewer's perspective, but heads made from books could symbolize the importance of knowledge and wisdom in the construction of human identity. They could also represent the idea that books and literature are the pillars upon which society and culture are built.

Berta Jayo is a multidisciplinary artist trained in Fine Arts in Spain, with postgraduate and master's degrees in London and New York. She uses photography, painting, installations, performances, sculpture, design, and artist's books. She employs conceptual techniques and irony. Her works convey freedom, invite reflection from a place of strangeness, and stimulate the creation of multiple personal interpretations, awakening internal questions and a sense of wonder.
