The fragility of being explores the constant metamorphosis of identity, that movement in which our essence is strained, blurred, and sometimes, recomposed. The series is born from an unsettling question: what part of us remains when we try to belong?
The works portray the continuous negotiation between authenticity and what is expected of us. In this process, one's own space becomes vulnerable and begins to be shaped under the pressure of the collective, generating a crisis of non-recognition and a loss of the internal rhythm that makes us unique.
Even so, from this fragility emerges the possibility of a place where belonging doesn’t require self-renunciation. There, the self ceases to be rigid and becomes flexible: capable of mixing, dialoguing, and transforming without disappearing. This transition goes from the fear of becoming indistinguishable to the discovery of a territory where we can sustain ourselves without mask and without rigidity.

Identity thus appears as something fragile but alive, capable of finding strength in honesty with oneself. True belonging arises when we stop forcing the form and allow ourselves to be, discovering that even in vulnerability there is a place of our own, one that can only be built from authenticity.
