Pergamo (Parchment) is the name of animal skin prepared to be written on, or the
actual document written on such material. The word parchment evolved from the
name of the Greek city Pergamon, which is believed by some to have been the
epicenter of this invention. Used by ancient people to record important data,
parchment is today a historical treasure. The delicacy and characteristics of the
parchment make it a rare and precious object. Bessa recreated an old and
deteriorated parchment in a sculptural piece of art and design to recover the history
of such remarkable material.
