Shell (Involucro) represents the individual as a mirror of the society in which IT lives. The point of view is profoundly nihilistic for the progressive and unstoppable decline of culture, institutions and values which marks every single visible crack and fractures the work of art is composed of. The attitude of the subject reproduced is submissive, static, dominated by someone or something; it crumbles under the burden of the world it carries, but it resists, it doesn’t give in, it remains upright.
