About The Codex Project 

The Codex is a symbolic, multidisciplinary art project by Vito Piacente. Rooted in personal myth, cultural memory, and generational heat, the series explores themes of identity, legacy, secrecy, and power. Every visual, word, and gesture is part of a larger narrative — one that blurs the lines between fiction and ancestral truth.
