The art of not being is a poetic sketch, a bodily journey about the life under dependency. A passage through emptiness, silence, automatism, stress, anxiety, emotions, and sensations that color the moods of the being.
A character and an object, the phone, and a whole world ahead where existence is intrinsically tied to necessity.
The phone serves as a parallel to everything that incites addiction, and its relationship with the character is an allegory of the eternal taboo of loneliness.
