SYNTAGMA

by VALIE EXPORT
1983 / 16mm / color / sound / 1S / 18' 00

SYNTAGMA is like a stare that someone exchanges with him/herself, as if he/she were two people, the stare of the eyes on themselves and the stare of the camera. Through these two eyes, only the gaze is perceived. Reflections of identities, the mirror as the impenetrable, as a veil of disguise. The more the mirror reflects, the more it slips into oblivion as an impenetrable object, even if it is impregnated with images.
