SYNOPSIS

Hidden among daily things arise new worlds, new dimensions led by metaphors which alter the perception of an immediate reality. The absurd, the paradox, the humor are to be found in our body.

A daily body decontextualized which is not only the reflection of what was there but related to consciousness of disappearance. Articulated behind its normal appearance, recognizable and familiar to us all, it hides a weirdness which yields new sensations and different perceptions.
