Falling Icarus becomes the symbol of the character’s fall. When his life stops at one place, he sets off on a journey inside his soul. Overwhelmed by the “gourmet of grief”, he is looking for the reasons of his failures and gets drowned in guilt. The emotions that disturb him are illustrated by animated matter: clay, sand or wood. Will he be able to breathe again and save himself before he turns into a stone?
