This image is deliberately provocative, a symbolic gesture of dissent against the clergy in all its forms and, more broadly, against institutionalized religions that, throughout history, have too often positioned themselves as instruments of control rather than channels of liberation.
The so-called 'diversities' that such institutions have repeatedly stigmatized are, in fact, nothing more than the countless 'human varieties' that constitute the true wealth of our species. They are not anomalies to be corrected or mere exceptions to be tolerated, but expressions of creativity, dignity, and freedom that demand recognition and respect.
By dressing the rigid symbols of clerical authority in the vivid colors of inclusivity, this work challenges the monopoly of moral discourse traditionally claimed by religions. It exposes the contradiction between their proclaimed values of love and acceptance and the systemic exclusion, repression, and discrimination that have marked their historical and contemporary actions.
This is not an argument against spirituality in its intimate, personal dimension, but rather a critique of its dogmatic institutionalization, where faith is weaponized to consolidate power and impose conformity. In a democratic and plural society, it is imperative to dismantle the structures that perpetuate exclusion and to promote instead a culture of mutual respect, critical thought, and authentic coexistence.
Inclusivity, then, is not merely a slogan; it is a political and philosophical stance. It is the refusal to let outdated dogmas dictate the legitimacy of human lives. It is the affirmation that freedom of thought, freedom of love, and freedom of identity are non-negotiable principles of a society that aspires to justice.
This image seeks to embody precisely that conviction: that the future belongs not to those who cling to hierarchical institutions and rigid creeds, but to those who celebrate the full spectrum of human existence in all its vibrant, uncontainable variety.
