Our age has given birth to a hermetic, prepotent individual obsessed with himself and his world. Before him, the world unfolds endlessly, shaped by his unlimited desires and whims. For narcissus, everything starts and ends with him, and his view of the world is always correct. Pleased with his world, there’s no need for him to look beyond: his world becomes his fortress. 

This project aims to reflect on the identity of the contemporary individual and his experience of the world: on the one hand, it aims to show the precarious construction they build around their persona and the narrow space in which they are immersed, and on the other hand, it aims to allow us to enter this fantastic and unreal world in which the perception of reality and its limits is altered.
