Son 20 años de experiencias artísticas de la artista mediterránea Icon Zar, lucha, dolor, éxito y placer puestos en 9 cuadrados de Instagram "The Time Capsule" 2003-2023, donde trata de reflexionar sobre la situación política y medioambiental actual, a través de su arte.

¿Qué podemos aprender de los Millennials y el arte contemporáneo? ¿Qué es el arte, quién decide? ¿Sobre los estándares del arte? ¿Cómo las galerías decidieron quién vivirá y quién morirá como artista?¿Sigue siendo un mundo dominado por los hombres también en el mundo del arte? ¿Porqué es tan difícil ser artista femenina y luchar por tu punto de vista en el mundo del arte? ¿Cómo quieres vivir tu vida y crear un mundo para ti y para la próxima generación?

Además, la artista, sensibilizada por la problemática medioambiental y atraída por las peculiaridades de los caballitos de mar, ha elegido este precioso animal como metáfora y símbolo marino más pequeño en el arte. Por ello, nace su colaboración especial en el proyecto “Cavallets de Mar balear” de la Fundación Palma Aquarium y la Banca March, que vela por la repoblación en el Mediterráneo de esta especie tan vulnerable.

Todas estas preguntas las plantea Icon Zar, artista femenina Millennial en su proyecto: “Dear WWW…”.
