NOTHING
In times of crisis people look for a safe place to be jobless without social criticism. Being at the beach in the morning, during normal working days in a society that works with an economic system that requires 35 to 40 working hours a week fuels criticism and stigmatisation. NOTHING focuses on the young and jobless that go to the beach to find a group of people doing the same day routine, “NOTHING”. Keyezua paints their bodies as a social marker, distinguishing the jobless from the worker.
"only the jobless would accept such an exposure to savagery" screamed the rich man while walking on the beach with his guard"
Their painted bodies is exhibited at the beach in resting poses to exhibit solitude, safety and peace. NOTHING is an invitation to initiate a dialogue on why these young men are homeless, doing “NOTHING” and are considered "DANGEROUS" for doing "NOTHING". During the crisis different groups of young, jobless men visit the beach to avoid confrontation with their own reality, specially due the difficulty to financially support themselves or their families. They lay or seat on the beach for hours to forget time and receive a new day to try to do SOMETHING.
