The work consists of two images of famous one-eyed film directors seemingly framed together when looking at a certain distance from the wall. The one-eyed filmmaker sees the world in two dimensions: he doesn’t need the camera to see the world as flat as an image. This gathering of two one-eyed filmmakers is a hope to re-enact a vision. Originally, the two visions are facing the camera lens. By being associated here in the depth of field, these two eyes are now looking through the exhibition space.
