Étant voyeur 1 and 2



The two photos go separately but they are set up beside each other, without touching. They can also be effective separately.

The sum of both picks up the different elements that appear in the work of Marcel Duchamp: reeds (vs. door), eyes (vs. orifices in the door), swamp (vs. cascade), lamp and fire (vs. streetlamps), shadows of two women (vs. woman lying down).


Étant Voyeur 1:
The left side of the photomontage of both photos in duplex format. The layers that compose the final work are: the swamp, the lamp, the shadows of two women moving in an erratic way looking for without looking for, and the text “Étant voyeur”, that gives title to the work.

Étant Voyeur 2:
The right side of the photomontage of both photos in duplex format. The layers that compose the final work are: another image of the swamp, embers of a fire, the shadows of other two women moving erratically looking for something, at the same time not looking for it, in a closer shot, two spots that simulate the eyes of one of them.

Like in Eliot´s Prufock, women come and go aimlessly, in this case mutely, without talking about Michelangelo nor the fallen angel, only in wandering silence of existentialist waiting. Meanwhile, the invisible phorographer registers the tracks of uncertain dreams with his invisible window. Nobody sees Robinson in his aloneness. Or is invisibility a thing shared by two?
