On the Object
On the Object is an anthropological visual research that investigates the role of the object as a representative of human consciousness. The idea behind the project arose from a question What will be the next necessary object? this question opens up another broader issue: what is necessary?
The intention is to articulate this research in several phases, each focused on a particular concern. The first chapter investigates the history of man through the conception and creation of material objects, considering what the human being unconsciously deems necessary according to the place and time in which he/she finds himself/herself.
