From Ulysses to the American Roadmovie, "He gives him to leave" raises an approach to the cultural constructions that surround the habit, the need to undertake a trip, evoked in the artistic images that make up the North Collection.
The trip appears frequently in universal literature as a metaphor of life, especially in what it has to search. Through trips, we seek peace, truth, change, happiness, knowledge. If the trip is the great activator of experiences and possibilities, the désir to leave is the manifestation of our need for perfection, a syndrome of an ontological dissatisfaction.
