The colorful and poetic images created by the collective
"The Council of Arts" paint an enchanting, almost timeless portrayal of a society in perfect harmony, where individuals, content and happy, seem to savor the pleasures and comforts of their existence. However, a closer look reveals a much more dreadful reality. We discover individuals with masked faces, almost suffocated, artificial settings, and an almost disturbing abundance of genetically modified artificial food...
Beneath this charming facade, subtle details hint at the excesses of a secretive and menacing authority, where individuals seem to be prisoners of an artificial and violent world where the concepts of submission, manipulation, and indoctrination are prevalent, along with social tensions and the desire for control. We catch a glimpse of the power that the group exerts over the individual, over nature, and the specter of rampant consumption in a world where the notions of free will and individual freedom seem compromised.
