The exhibition Happiness Is Not for Everyone is a look at the phenomenon of self-help guides that resuscitate the myth of the strong, masculine individual who has his life firmly in his own hands. However, when we focus more closely, we see a lonely man in distress. From the constructed nature of the situation—the asynchronization and denial of the source image and sound, the speaker's hesitant yet determined diction—we can guess that this is a game with authenticity, that we are witnessing the performance of a role, the fulfillment of a task, the immersion in the state of sovereignty.
