Description
This is the fourth page of the book I made an edition of 4 of for Intaglio II. The book is inspired by the novella, The Hour of the Star, by Clarice Lispector.

Each page had an overlay of text from the novella, which I will include here:

No one would teach her how to die one day: yet one day she would surely die as if she had already learned by heart how to play the starring role. For at the hour of death, you become a celebrated film star, it is a moment of glory for everyone, when the choral music scales the top notes.

All text is copyright Clarice Lispector and her translator, with minor edits by me.
