DO is made of the leather leftovers from Magazine (2014), an edition for DoPe Press magazine : « Magazine celebrates the fragile aspect of a periodical. By transforming the pages of PARIS, LA magazine into a unique bracelet, Ligia Dias confirms her interest in traditional and industrial materials, as well as her ability to combine luxury and natural attributes into one object. Cut, gilded with 22K gold leaf, pierced and held between two strips of leather, Magazine becomes a transformed and unreadable book that can be worn on the wrist or placed on display. » DO is augmented with anonymous, famous and personal quotes embossed on the leather
