Casse tête de fille, se coiffer

In an everyday situation, all by myself, I undergo an experience that puts my own body and its limitations to the test. Like Narcissus, I look into the camera as if it were a mirror, and I restlessly and end- lessly try to achieve the perfect hairdo. Hence, I brush my hair for hours in order to achieve that goal. As the performing artist, I do follow strict guidelines, i.e. find the hairdo that reflects the mental image of myself until I reach the state of exhaustion.
