210€
Description
The number 21 is in numerology, the number of transformation. In tarot, it represents the World card, it is interpreted as the elevation of the spirit to its peak.
The chameleon is a family of lizards able to change the color of their skin through homochromy depending on their emotions or the environment.
Let's look at the work. The idea is to free people from the embrace that prevents them from being themselves or from realizing their desires by hiding behind masks in order to fit into the norms of society or their surroundings. The whole is expressed here by a mask with the colors of the LGBT flag and a dry mouth that dares not express itself.
The other idea in this work is the elevation of the spirit in order to master the understanding of any being by putting on the mask he wishes to see in order to create a bond of trust. A wink is hidden by the mustache of the famous fictional character Arsène Lupin who mastered the art of disguise and identity change.

You may not be familiar with his face, but he was the inspiration for writer Arthur Conan Doyle's best-selling The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes.
This man is Joseph Bell, born on December 2, 1837 in Edinburgh and is the descendant of a great family of recognized surgeons. He was the last of his line to practice this profession, and far from tainting the family legend, he gave it another dimension.
A studious student, he graduated at the age of 21 and gave his first classes in Surgeon Square at the age of 26. His atypical physique and his insight caused a sensation. At that time, he was Conan Doyle's teacher who told the following anecdote about him :
"He would sit in his reception room, red-faced like an Indian, and diagnose people who came in before they even had a chance to open their mouths. He would tell them their symptoms, and even details of their past lives, almost never making a mistake." It is said that he assisted the police force with his profiling skills, one of his passions.
Joseph Bell, doctor 1837-1911

It is a very intelligent animal that lives in groups with very particular social behavior. When they reach adulthood, males leave the clan in which they were raised to form a new one. In spite of these separations, the different groups interact with each other when it is necessary, for example, to move from one territory to another; they manage to organize the crossing together.
Apart from this communication, social interactions between members of different clans are rare.
Even though they are aware that they are stronger if they are all grouped together, this mentality of social separatism prevails and makes their organization a complex society operating in a hierarchical manner.
Thanks to their large nasal cavities, these monkeys can communicate like ventriloquists by emitting a whole range of sounds without opening their mouths.
