Not [ai]

Video, b&w, sound, 4'02'' (loop), 2008
Project Llevo toda mi vida doblando

Two mouths pronounce the word I [ai] with different tones of voice: from a whisper to a scream. Sounds that in turns confirm and question the I (eye).
The relationship between object – subject; the self and the other; Bataille’s ocular metaphors; ideas of communication and identity related to an impossibility of synchronisation.
