Miniature visualization of Italo Calvino’s Ersilia

Art Director: Pedro Bernstein
Publisher: Bernstein’s Inventory of Creative Artifacts
Format: Conceptual Object
Released: 2025A miniature model of Ersilia, conceived as a bedside object from an imaginary world inspired by Calvino’s city. Black metallic rods rise from a white surface, supporting a delicate mesh of fine threads that stretch, tangle, and intersect as days unfold. 

Over the course of a week, the structure would gradually tend to thicken into a dense web (visualizing lived interactions). At week’s end, the object is meant to be cleared, like brushing away a spider’s architecture, turning maintenance into a quiet ritual.

Part sculpture, part a clock of relationships, it visualizes social traces, bringing Ersilia’s logic into the scale of a nightstand.
