A Dadaist collage that plays on the concept of identity, with impossible selfies taken by the protagonists of historical masterpieces of portraiture and the self-portrait. What is hidden under the skin, skinned by the toxic radiation of mobile phones? What would Leonardo da Vinci and Andy Warhol have done with this evil device?
