TITLE: Promethean man
The photo focuses on the suffering expressed by the sub-conscience of young people, taking up the philosophical concept of "Promethean man" by Gunther Anders, and of "liquid life" of the sociologist Zigmunt Bauman. It describes, with chains and tears, the problem of current young people who find themselves chained to a world that no longer listens.
