About the artwork
Avatar 2099' proposes a reality inverse to ours, where identity can be discarded and replaced. This approach serves as a metaphor criticizing the prevailing culture of consumption and ego, challenging viewers to question: have we become accustomed to renouncing our true identity to adapt to these values?
