HUMAN BEING
"Human Being" is my photo project exploring the intersection of urban life and the human desire to connect with nature. Immersed in the daily grind of city life and surrounded by towering buildings, individuals find themselves reflected in mirrors, prompting them to imagine an escape to new, imaginary places. I represent the four elements—water, air, fire, and earth—through the use of various materials such as fabric, clothing, and actual elements. The result is a surreal depiction of feelings and desires, illustrating a profound yearning to reconnect with the simplicity and presence of nature.
Human - Lorena Mariscal / 2023
All realities coexist,
It depends on where I am,
Mine and theirs are the same.
Same place, different times,
Light bodies, heavy minds.
Where have they gone: consistency and patience?
An order is being found,
Tuning, synchronization
Like the water; cold whirlwind of tears and joy
The air; words on my mind, drawn a song.
The earth; where he kissed me, I saw him coming, his aroma approached and I bit him.
In the fire, my soul, moon of energy, living consciousness that experiences every day.
