The Monoliths were usually immense, imposing and very heavy stones. Our ancestors lifted them from the ground with great difficulty, worked them and placed as an indelible mark of their passage on this earth. The monoliths were idolized, becoming not only prehistoric works of art but sacred objects, respected as divinities. Nowadays, monoliths can be reinterpreted by the wonders of architectural works. The images in this series want to reinterpret the architectural idea, with the use of light and the language of black and white.
