Un être hybride se dresse au cœur d’un paysage en ruine. Autour de lui, des canalisations éclatées, des amas de détritus, une végétation redevenue sauvage : tout porte les stigmates d’un monde abandonné. Vêtu d’une accumulation de plastiques et de masques chirurgicaux, ce personnage semble avoir fusionné avec les vestiges d’une civilisation à la dérive. Les bras tendus, les mains ouvertes, le cri suspendu, il hurle. Le ciel est clair, presque lumineux — mais la scène reste oppressante. À la fois victime et témoin, la créature incarne l’ultime présence consciente d’une planète à l’agonie. Elle lève les yeux vers le ciel, comme pour implorer le retour de ce qui fut. D’essence divine peut-être, mais dépassée par ce qu’elle contemple : un monde que les hommes, devenus dieux, ont fini par anéantir.

A hybrid being rises amidst a ruined landscape. Around it, broken pipes, piles of debris, wild vegetation — all bearing the scars of an abandoned world. Clad in layers of plastic and surgical masks, the figure seems to have merged with the remnants of a collapsing civilisation. Arms raised, hands open, mouth agape, it screams. The sky is bright, almost serene — but the atmosphere remains heavy. At once victim and witness, the creature embodies the last conscious presence of a dying planet. It turns its gaze skyward, as if begging for a return. Divine in nature perhaps, but overwhelmed by what it sees: a world once entrusted to humankind, now destroyed by gods of their own making.
