Homeostasis

Every living organism is united by the natural tendency to achieve a constant balance between the inside and the outside of its body. Homeostasis takes its name from this attitude by similarly seeking the inner balance of the "Io" with the natural balance of the surrounding environment. The work portrays a shell lying on the beach illuminated from within by a fluid spirit that symbolizes the mind, protected by hard and organic matter. Surmounted by a moving starry sky in which the pole star is the only immobile reference, it offers a reflection on the inexorable change of things
