Description
Pinocchio the Nosey is a creation that celebrates curiosity as the driving force of knowledge. Inspired by the most iconic puppet in literature, the artwork captures the moment when Pinocchio, still unable to read, peers into a book far too large for him. It’s a simple, almost naïve gesture, yet profoundly human—the desire to understand, to go beyond appearances. Plaster, acrylic paint, and string shape the book into a symbolic object, transforming it into a reflection on the value of culture and the urgency of growing through learning.

The title itself contains the essence of the work: curiosity as an evolutionary force. Lorenzo and Simona Perrone offer a poetic and powerful image of the moment when the thirst for knowledge is born. Ignorance—not as a fault, but as a starting point—makes the need to learn all the more urgent. The book, towering above Pinocchio, becomes a symbol of knowledge waiting to be discovered, and of the challenge each person faces in their journey of growth.
