The siesta is a void where time seems to dilute. In this absolute silence, the light filters unhurriedly, the warmth settles on the surfaces and the body rests, but without falling asleep. It is a moment of suspension, of vulnerability.
In this forced lethargy, solitude is perceived differently. As a subtle, persistent presence. Masculinity, in its apparent strength, finds in this instant a crack through which fragility, dissatisfaction and the weight of lovelessness appear. Control disappears, leaving only the body exposed, the mind in its own labyrinth.
Silence is not rest, it is a mirror. The nap should be a refuge, but here it becomes a sort of interval where absence becomes tangible. The afternoon advances slowly, the heat remains, and when the noise of the world returns, the feeling of distance will still be there, intact.
