For humanity, the third millennium marks the end of utopias, that of equality for all, of liberalism, of a clean world, of a possible harmonious cohabitation of human beings with nature.  This nature, so often dominated and oppressed, today rebels, and shows us the limits of the changes that we imposed on her.  Confronted with a monster they have created and can no longer control, modern humans continue to refuse the evidence and evade the irreversible.  They wander in search of solutions, pushing aside all promises.  Nature, so silent for so long, gradually regains her rights, leaving mankind destitute of resources; and it is with elegance and a certain casualness that she plays with all the traps that have been set for her.  Humans now move forward without landmarks, frozen in their habits, in search of this lost contact that will allow them to reconnect with their original world.  In this series they are only witnesses, objects of an environment that nature draws.  It is she who now decides and imposes, and yet she does not completely expel from her territory these strange creatures who have done her so much harm.  Perhaps, she even gives them one last chance and, failing to be reborn, the hope of reinventing themselves.
