Paola Bianchi

The contemporary human being is conditioned from birth by a double condition:

on the one hand, his own will, his desire, and on the other, his duty, the obligations linked to community and morality. As a result, we are never entirely free; we constantly act between inside and outside, between law and autonomy, between what we want to do and what we have to do. The work unfolds in a desperate vitality, there is no surrender but a continuous struggle to confirm one’s existence, to feel alive.
