What if humanity had never created civilization, if we had never lived in cities and had never coexisted with living beings other than nature itself? Athena is a creature born from the Earth, with human features but with extraordinary and surreal genetic traits. Raised in total solitude, without any contact with other humans, she considers nature as her only parent. Her appearance reflects this deep connection, almost merging with the environment that surrounds her. Living outside the structures of civilization, Athena is the symbol of a life in harmony with the Earth, a being who represents a primordial and uncontaminated bond with the natural world.
