About the series: This photographic essay is not meant to be a mere illustration of the harsh reality, but an essay of the critical unconsciousness of individuals, submerged by social inertia in apathy to all historical matters that surround them. The photographs try to confront the spectator between the importance of ‘being’ and not just ‘existing’, to reflect in those actions that turn the individual insensitive and as part of a society used to its own routines. These images seek to remove the inner consciousness and resurrect “the human being with a voice and sight, with the ability to hear and thus, one who possesses a criteria.”
