Until luck fixes me
From the series: "I have seen the house of the hunted, I have gone hunting for the married"
Videoinstallation
Inside an antique closet, a looping video of a woman desperately trying to force herself into a wedding dress is played through an LCD TV screen in portrait mode. In the front part of the closet, there is a translucent mirror where the viewer, in addition to finding his reflection, can see a woman trapped in the closet desperate to get into the dress.
The woman in the closet breaks with the stereotype of beauty, trying desperately and forcefully to have a place within the rites and behaviors that are socially validated. The dress makes the bride and she pretends to be. This same woman turns her back on the public as a rejection of social and cultural molds, but at the same time desperately trying to fit into them.
