ricerca_d_identità (6161_seiunoseiuna) |search_for_identity (youareone_maleandfemale)| faces one of the oldest reflections of man in the definition of his ego, the male and female component which together constitute the essence, the deepest and most torn root of our being. We can find this concept even in the Tao, the symbol of universal balance, made explicit in the small white drop immersed into the black and vice versa. For the human being, the acceptance of this simple truth continuously clashes with the prejudices and the cultures in which subjects interact. A natural disposition that collides with social conventions, generating in some cases real “monsters”... of ignorance! We can find a further reading level in this work: that of the social interaction between individuals, not necessarily of different sexes. In both cases, the invitation is to the exchange, to deepening, and to relationship.
Interlacement is coexistence, acceptance of other individuals with no domination but equal dignity, of other individuals in mutual respect.
