La piel
Molino, Sergio del
The monsters exist and they walk among us, perhaps we are ourselves. This is the starting point of Sergio del Molino's new work, a journey that this time teaches us to look towards the most common and at the same time the most individual territory: human skin. A severe psoriasis, which fills the body with scabs and makes it impossible to show nakedness, helps the narrator to analyze the lives of various well-known characters who have suffered the consequences of bad skin. The shame of feeling observed and the need to hide, the culture of image and hypermedicalization, racism and classism are stops on this journey because of the secrets that we cover with our clothes and that make our skin a border with the world. Sergio del Molino takes us to a territory that belongs to all of us: the skin.
