Experiencing Interruptions?

My Second Face

At first sight, it may seem that this video has a dramatic plot, but it doesn't!
This film is about discovering yourself and accepting all sides of yourself without exception.

What is the path you have to take to love yourself?
My answer is the "Second Face Project" because there is a dark side in all of us that we find frightening, even to ourselves.

This project grew out of the ideas of German-Ukrainian singer-songwriter Inna Ligum and her song 'My Second Face'. The song premiered on 17 July 2021.

It is a story about embracing the worst of ourselves, the things we are ashamed and afraid of. It is only by looking unvarnished into our faces that we can truly love.

The video shows the story an artist who goes through all the stages of embarrassment, insecurity and devaluation, but risking to believe in herself, she rises above these feelings and becomes a creator of her art and life.

This video performance of the German singer Inna Ligum's song "My Second Face" became the first ART-FACT, the first phase of Inna's large project "Songs for Mankind".

The video material and artwork that was created in the process is a competition work of the Museum of Modern Art in Luxembourg. (luxembourgartprize.com)

Director Statement

Why do I feel nothing, where is the darkness, where is my inner core hidden? The real world holds on to imperfection, unraveling and destroying miles of rightness. The real end for you will be never to know the integrity of your earthly incarnation/PREVENTION. What path do you choose? Go where it hurts to look at yourself, to see yourself true and strong in all your throbbing flesh. Or to be logical. I've come for me. For someone who can burn with words and unite with an avalanche of fear. Creepiness is when you hide the real you behind the illusions of categories. The best thing you can do in this life is to give life to your other self. The world has changed. And demands the feat of not pretending and opening your gut.
