2021
The Fragmented Man
The Old World is inexorably fading away. Slowly falling asleep. Eventually coming to death. Man’s illusions rush down the abysses, soon to be followed by the spark of life that makes its essence, triggering off an infernal spiral.
Yet, from the ruins of this renascent Atlantis, a new iron life stirs. Buds of glass, blossoms of metal, and petals of plastic are springing up. Swallowed up by machines belching out their icy flames, man awakens. Lost in an immaterial universe, he faces a multiple sprawl of dematerialized paths.
2021, the fragmented man wanders above a sea of loneliness…
The iron Nature yields entangled universes. Glass and metal forge new horizons.
Monstrous creatures materialize. Waves of terror break on the world’s banks.
Modern volcanoes. Pour their cloudy steam. Of concrete magma. Over the planet.
Remnants of the past. The modern man’s quest to erase.
San Lisboa de Janeiro, 2021. Annihilated distances, identities and landmarks for a globalized planet.
Machines bolt. In a frantic race for power. Their mechanical laugh, endlessly.
Caught up in concrete.
Alone, he wanders. Locked up in his thoughts.
The Pythagorean man, or the lost reason. Humanity, Stone and the Beast, a triangular conversation.
The Fragmented Man. Multipli-City in a lonely world.
The hanged dream down, or elevated Nothingness.
