The work entitled "Carnada" (Bait) is a powerful representation that fuses bodypaint and photographic negative to explore the complexity of the food chain. At the center of the composition is a being in a vulnerable posture, tied with a rope that simulates a fishhook, evoking the image of a bait meant to attract fish. Its skin, adorned with colors that contrast with the background, reflects the internal struggle between beauty and exploitation. The use of the photographic negative intensifies the atmosphere, creating shadows that suggest the duality of life and death. Through this representation, the work invites the viewer to reflect on the different roles in the food chain, highlighting that, although some are predators, others can also be victims. The rope, symbolizing capture and restraint, becomes a reminder of how human decisions can affect other living beings. "Bait" is not only a critique of exploitation, but also an invitation to consider other points of view in the cycle of life, challenging the traditional perception of nature and its interconnectedness. The work thus becomes a visual dialogue that invites empathy and reflection on our place in the world.
