What we did:

From Where Do You Start When Drawing a Flower? offers a playful and intimate look into the creative universe of Argentine filmmaker Matías Piñeiro. Bringing together texts, photographs, watercolours, sketches, handwritten notes and archival fragments, the publication traces the connections between cinema, literature and everyday life.

Spanning two decades of filmmaking, the book unfolds as an open-ended journey through Piñeiro’s process, influences and collaborations. Designed as a lively constellation of images and ideas, it reveals the unexpected associations, gestures and discoveries that shape his work, offering a glimpse into the thinking behind the films.
