This work is composed by a pair of mirrors; one of them has been violently reduced in form. Although gender and identity has long spawned a number of criticism, anatomically differentiated bodies are still forcibly inscribed with a violently formed "norm." "Gender is used here in the singular because indeed there are not two genders. There is only one : the feminine, the 'masculine' not being a gender. For the masculine is not the masculine, but the general." (Monique Wittig  "The Point of View: Universal or Particular?" Feminist Issues, vol.3, no.2 (Fall 1983))
