This video was presented in a lot of international film festivals and is also part of the collection of the National Museum of Art, Osaka, Japan. It shows the artist's imagination of ecstasy and upliftment. This is a work that stacked images as a new method, using pictures taken from real life, like a woman's torso, and compounding it with computer graphics.
