FABLES FROM ORDINARY LIFE

This series of pieces was inspired by our human need to find a reason for existing, in order to overcome with some dignity the ordinary realities of daily life. Society offers some concrete options to fulfill this need: Fall in love, mutually, with your ideal partner; marry and love someone for ever; create a family and be its pillar; practice infinite goodness, always turning the other cheek; feel part of ancient traditions, among other purely material options, and perhaps others which I might not yet be able to grasp. In this work in progress, I have been contemplating some of these possibilities.
