OVERLOADED

Today, we have the perception that time is passing faster than in the past. Time has accelerated to such an extent that everything has become an event, yet to what extent doesn't its crowding take away from the very definition of the word?

OVERLOADED is series of images that represents the overwhelming and suffocating feeling caused by the excess of news.

Nowadays, traveling is extremely fast and we are able to reach the most remote places in just a few hours. This mobility of people, goods, information, and images creates an "excess of space" that gives us the notion that the world is narrowing down.

Claustrophobia is characterized by the fear or discomfort of small, enclosed or locked spaces. This pathological fear of confinement shows itself in the image, where the topic is presented by a human figure contracting in a extremely tight space of a cardboard box. This visual hyperbole expresses the feeling of being trapped in a small space that, in contrast, is inserted into an open and wide one. It is a contradictory excess of space, manifested by the uncomfortable confinement experienced in a box.
