Like a man on stilts, in unstable balance, or like a larva struggling to get out of its cocoon, this figure squirms and walks with difficulty on its conical legs.

The tight bandages contain the self and keep its true nature from coming out.
Spaventa l’idea di uscire fuori dal bozzolo, meglio starsene ricurvi su se stessi. Questo ripiegamento intimo, fisico e cerebrale, sostiene l’individualità.
