    Lemmario is a composition consisting of topics, paragraphs, and lemmas, in which two opposing theses can both be true or both false. Navigating through this lemmario provides an experience of a poetic and simultaneously encyclopedic work, an undefined chain that interweaves art, anthropology, and politics.

    The front of each page contains the text while the back features images and notes. This makes each page independent from the others; what holds them together are the binding screws, positioned differently for each copy of the book.
