The concept:
The most famous allegory used by Plato in the 7th book of the dialogue “The State” says: being in a cave, we believe that through our senses we know the true reality, however, such a life is just an illusion, and the shadows cast by objects are delusions. This lasts until there is no exit from the cave.
But even after a way out is found, humanity, as it was many years ago, is still lost among the shadows cast by culture, the authenticity of which is not confirmed by anything.
We propose to get out of the cave of the modern world by searching for a connection with embodied ideas that are reflected in absolutely all aspects of human life.
