Visual reasoning in psychoanalytic discourse on the topic of attraction to life and attraction to death.
The search for the Lacanian object, the object-the cause of desire. The Lacanian mirror stage as the basis of human subjectivation. The attraction to death as a result of something lost and the inability to make up for the loss. The play of two opposite principles that set the individual rhythm of being of an individual subject.
Reasoning about the presence and absence of an object. The illusion of perception and the collision with the Real.
The project consists of four works with mirror optics and recombinant video.
The video creation technique is a recombinant selection of frames from various films uploaded into a single database created by contemporary artists Jan Gerber and Sebastian Lutgert, which is open to graduates of their author's course on video art at the Salzburg Academy of Fine Arts (Austria).

video art
The video was created by randomly selecting frames from a movie database and then sorting them by color, style, and theme in the future.
In the video, a visual search is conducted for a Lacanian object, which is represented by a red circle. The frame editing involves turning on a black screen each time a new frame appears, creating the illusion of pulsation and the appearance and disappearance of the object.
The Lacanian object has an abstract shape and is located against a background of real space. It represents the perfect form of desire and the red color symbolizes seduction. According to Lacan's psychoanalytic theory, this object is a libidinally-loaded object that is located behind the subject's fantasies. The phantasm serves to cover up the object, as meeting it directly can be unbearable.
