All of us have been babies. We will all grow up
Virgin Mary thinks that humans will soon collapse if we don't do something emotionally intelligent. Imma sips her soup with relisch; she is about to receive an unexpected visit. Oriol doesn't know that today will be the last day he is able to look at the works like any given retired. Montse can't dance anymore since she started living underwater. And Mochi... oh, Mochi! We want to live to a hundred years, but who will take care of us and treat us with dignity, respecting our freedom? Was this, the progress? .
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
It was an unmitigated triumph. A victory of life over life itself. Living and growing old with dignity. And so... what happened?
We ignore everything that is not productive or reproductive fullness. An ageist, discriminatory treatment determined by the aging of a body. A collapse of the humanism we took for granted. A kind of bullet that we shoot at ourselves now, so that it fully impacts all of us in a few years.
This collapse puts the atavistic senses that we had exiled to the highest shelves of the bookshelf in our grandparents' house on alert. A kind of fear of ourselves that makes us work on the naive search for meaning, exercising the memory of the body. Reasoning with the tension of our muscles, with the fixed gaze and the gesture that unites: survival instinct and chaos. Writing about who we were. Trying to restore the primary order of all things. Of when we were people.
