"Lust and death, perplexity and disarmament. A way to juxtapose found images against each other. On the one hand a photograph of a hunter in civil clothes, 1940s, the gun at the horizon line, aimed at the frame of the photograph. On the other hand women with bare breasts in impertinent attitudes, 1960s. Doubling, simplification, neutralisation, confronting, situating. The soundtrack reduces the confrontation to a positive abstraction."
