Insight (2012), video still

"The research for the conception of Insight was done by going through my previous works.  

This piece can be seen as the heart that pumps the essence to the rest of my works, an organ with a concentrated fluid from which the other pieces are conceptually fed.

The source intention comes from a reaction to the rupture of a dominant perception of reality. A world with a mirror image, one that can be accessed by crossing the mirror’s surface. Indeed, within the realm of fiction, mirrors provide both characters and readers with a gateway to a different world. Interaction with that new environment, be it purely fantastic or disturbingly didactic, pushes one to expand one’s horizons and reconsider the concept of real world."
