    Inspired by the song "Who is She".


    Zeyden was a painter, a celebrated and renowned artist.

    In recent months, he found himself entangled in recurring dreams, always with the same male figure: a man with a slender body and unruly hair, standing by a lake under the gentle light of night. In each dream, this mysterious man would tell him to find him, not to leave him, not to go away. But every time this man turned his face in an attempt to look at Zeyden, he would wake up, as if the dream were nothing more than an ephemeral memory, a "hazy recollection."

    Zeyden couldn’t quite describe what he felt each time he relived that dream, but it was as though this man was already a known presence, something that existed in some forgotten place of his own life.

    So he decided to paint this figure as a way to translate the mystery that enveloped him. In the painting, he portrayed him exactly as he saw him in the dream, from behind, wrapped in a white cloth that fell gently over his shoulders. The face, always hidden, kept the mystery alive.

    The painting quickly became famous and ended up being displayed in a museum. There, Zeyden would explain to the public what he felt as he brought that enigmatic vision to life. But among the admirers, a man appeared, gazing at the painting with an unusual fascination.

    Zeyden watched him carefully, and when the man turned around, he felt a chill. It was as if the man in the painting had stepped out and come to life. He froze, his eyes fixed on you. It was you, the exact image he had dreamed of and portrayed.

    “I… found my lost memory…” —he whispered to himself, incredulous.
