In a space where the assimilation of the social rules is dominating any kind of pure gesture is traced by an external presence. The outer world is a place of dissolution and disturbance. We live in prefabricated worlds and we teach ourselves ways of social survival. Everything is reflected back in a form of frustration and confusion when our ideas don’t meet the social general requirements of self validation.

Individuality is objectified and we’re being trapped in social cages which reassure the fact that social status, career and external recognition are illusory pillars of life . The contemporary desacralised society creates an infinity of parallel worlds where individuality is undermined through dissemination of general concepts of self validation, Structures of interpretation reside in individual actions.
