MIRAGE

POLISH TITLE: MIRAŻ

The screen that is divided in two symmetrical parts includes almost identical, seemingly abstract paintings, made using black salt. It takes some time to notice that the shapes are the silhouettes of a woman and a man.  The picture of their relationship is complemented by atmospheric music. The salt paintings on both sides of the screen begin to slightly differ at one point, just like the images created by each of the partners in this relationship.
