FOSFENO is an animal myth. It is an invitation to reflection, a juxtaposition of the comfort of the real with the discomfort of the imaginary. A liberation from realistic predicates, so that they may become poetic fictions. Its reality is that of the world of the mountains, of the humans and the other beings that inhabit them. It is composed of images revealing impactful events. It is a fable about the confrontation between man and the force of nature; the clash between the savage, the wild, and the civilized.
