In this new reality, art ceases to be just a reflection, it becomes a reinterpretation, an attempt to make sense in a world devoid of emotion. How will a new aesthetics of love, fear or longing emerge when touch, feelings and even death lose meaning? What about us - human beings - when we enter this new order, in which there is no longer room for randomness, true expression, but only control and precisely designed forms?
And in this context appears the Monolith - a mysterious, almost divine symbol of the quest for transcendence, which becomes not only a witness, but also a catalyst for these transformations. The Monolith, in its impersonal, motionless form, reminds us of the quest to understand the incomprehensible. But in this new world, where the boundaries between man, machine and art are blurring, the Monolith poses the question: does this transcendence lead to liberation, or rather to a new kind of enslavement that deprives us of that primordial magic, that mystery of existence that makes us human? In this uncertainty of being, will we be able to find ourselves or sink in a digital ocean where there is no longer room for true existence?"
