Hambre, as the title suggests, is a work of “ primary needs”; man-beast lies in wait hidden from the more and more refined overstructures of a social context which looks kindly permessive but, on the contrary, it’s not able to recognize and admit him in his innermost essence. Therefore the subject is distorted into a kind of complaisant actor, who is obliged to play in a circus where a hungry audience, eager of emotions, will decree his triumph or his decadence.
Anyway, while the mole keeps on digging, the “actor” gets rid of his own skillfull manipulators , first of all from himself. The mask falls down and a wishful animal-nature comes out, being to fickle to fix steadily on a single object; it’s the apotheosis of senses, aimless instinct free from prejudices.
It’s useless to deny or to censure, the beast keeps on living and eating….
