MORE The two videos question the relation and boundaries between man and woman in a philosophic and psychological manner. Like in the psychological theory of Jacques Lacan woman and man mirror themselves in terms of "the Other", so this is the issue of these videos.

There is always a surface, a shape for interacting constructed here through a digital code. But what will remain is always an imaginary shape which meanings are constructed not through the shape itself, but by the society in which we are living.
