The protagonist has a metaphysical significance inspired by anthropomorphic dummies of De Chirico. It ‘s an empty form, a container without a soul of images, memories and feelings vaguely human,it is the projection of man’s intellectual.

Suggestions films and literature are at the base of each image, where features the recall to the colors of the paintings of Edward Hopper and to the Philip K.
