La vidéo My split eye propose de rapprocher la situation des personnes regardant les paysages de la Corée du Nord - au travers des grandes baies panoramiques des observatoires au Sud de la frontière - avec la situation cinématographique. Comme un écran, ces fenêtres incitent à une projection, des souvenirs, de l’histoire, venant ainsi recouvrir ce qui y est directement perçu. Car le rapport cinématographique que propose la frontière est celui de la collectivisation d’une image, celle hallucinée de l’absence de l’autre.
The video My split eye places under scrutiny the act of observing north Korea's landscape through the large panoramic windows that are used as observatories of sort. By doing so, a parralel with the cinematic situation is established. Similar to a projection screen, those large windows incite to project memories. Those projected histories add an extra layer unto what is directly seen through those windows. Such cinematic relation to the border generates hallucinatory images of the absence of an other.
