This project aims to analyze the human being from a physical and psychological point of view, the study of the human mind and body through science.

On one hand, a series of colours that refer to human body components are showed. The representation of the human being based on the colour of light emitted by atoms that make up our bodies in the nanoscale, and thereby showing that we are all composed of the same material and we are equal.

The human body is composed of (percentages based on weight):
65% Oxigen (dark red)
18% Carbon (violet)
10% Hidrogen (red)
3% Nitrogen (dark red)
1,5% Calcium (violet)
1% Phosphorus (green)
0,4% Potassium (dark red)
0,3% Sulfur (dark red)
0,3% Sodium (yellow)
0,15% Chlorine (blue)
0,1% Magnesium (blue)
0,1% Iodine (orange)
0,1% Iron (orange)

And on the other hand, cases of anthropophobia or social phobia, social isolation or people avoiding social interaction are constantly growing - it may become a common disorder during the 21st century. One of the clearest examples are the young Japanese hikkikomoris, who live isolated from society, not leaving their rooms for years keeping only in touch with the world through the Internet.

In this project, the sneeze and the allergy are used as a metaphor of an individual's social behaviour, intending to show a global and actual picture of
social interaction, where the individual tends towards isolation.
