17’45’’ 16 mm film, loop
double sided back projection
Dear Sides is a retro projected – double sided film installation, offering a constant reversal using half palindrome words and phrases while real time editing. One and the same moment assumes different meanings depending what side of the screen you are on. As if the film looked at returns our gaze, while subtly offering different ways in which they allow themselves to be seen. An exchange between obverse to reverse, a mise en abyme of sight.
