This image is taken from the video called Glima. In an uncontaminated, desolate arctic landscape a male character and his female antagonist engage in an exhausting struggle which sees neither victor nor vanquished. The man’s face is covered by a sort of threatening wrestling mask with long black strands of fabric hanging off it, the ends of which are connected to the woman’s black gloves. The two of them are thus inseparably joined, as if caught in a lethal trap that foments their wrath against one another. With this work, Masbedo (born Nicolò Masazza and Jacopo Bedogni) highlight their poetics of using different media within their creations.
