DESCRIPTION
I appear searching for something into others’ lockers, exposing their very personal belongings and space to juxtapose it with the space outside; the street. During the on-going discussion about the ‘True Nature’, I find a toy (which is symbolic of innocence, mischievousness, barbarousness), I wear the toy and go out in the street.
The shoot in itself is a juxtaposition of the artificial light with the natural light in real time, and paradoxically the light inside and the light outside, metaphorically the mind inside and the mind outside.
