the motif of the ‘doppelgaenger’ or look-alike is both irritating and fascinating at the same time: his appearance confounds the boundaries between oneself and others. the doppelgaenger questions concepts of similarity and difference, problematizes the subject and its identity.
«isson« means ‘same’ in greek and is dedicated to contrasts, reality and illusion, light and shadows, restlessness and peace. two realities that cannot be separated.
the dream is not the other reality, it glides over them both, illuminates or darkens them. shadows, a dark zone created by opaque bodies that refracts the rays of a light source. the obscurity contrasts with the light passing by.
every sad and dark thought is a fleeting and passing thought, a passing thought of fear. every disturbance of the soul, every black melancholy is an illusion.
