It seems that we are living several dystopic kinds of literature at the same time. To mention one, it is enough referring to Margaret Atwood's novel, The Handmaid\u2019s Tale. Since few days ago, in a supermarket, I heard the loudspeaker repeating: \u201ckeep social distance so that shopping can still be a reality\u201d, I can't forget the image of Atwood\u2019s supermarket with loudspeakers announcing: \u201cdon't look at each other, don't talk to each other\u201d.\n\nWe are living the era of the unfolding of biopolitics, which foresaw Foucault five decades ago. Locked in our quarantines, in front of media, observing the drastic rising in numbers of dead and infected people, we are gradually converting to complete passive spectators. Evoking Aristotle, those \u201cpolitical animals\u201d that we used to be, are losing their political capacity. Without any faculty of intervening in the sociopolitical situation, we are converting to naked life, biological body, or bare life. Reminding Giorgio Agamben, now we are bare lives, who \u201cmay be killed and yet not sacrificed.\u201d \n\nThe represented painting tries to explore this 'not-political-animal', overwhelmed by espacial politics which are controlling his existence.","space":"Mixed media on canvas - 120x80 cm\nWall mounted","artists_proposal":null,"members":[],"lang":"es","status":"ok","video_link_password":null,"video_link":null,"audio_link_password":null,"audio_link":null,"images_link_password":null,"images_link":null,"cellphone":null,"description":null,"estimated_budget":null,"complementary_info":null,"names":"Narges","surname":"Bazarjani","email":"narges.bazarjani@gmail.com","dni_type":"Otro","dni":"Y2286396-A","address":"Altamirano, 3, 1E","city":"Madrid","nacionality":"Iran\u00ed","country_id":"71","birthdate":"1978-03-30T23:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1978-03-30T23:00:00.000Z","telephone":"+34 632801680","web":"www.nargesbazarjani.com"}
