Speaking through the conjuntion between the actress' different looks and various atmospheres, the new video introduces the collage and overlap of images which seem isolated in chronological order. Coming from the "narrated" and fragmentized memory of family history, those images emphasize and magnify the specific gap existing between the abovementioned recollection and the virtualized construction of today' s reality, presenting the complicities and multiplicities one may encounter when it comes to the approaches to judgment. Essentially, the work reflects an introspective attitude towards the conception of "self".
