« I love your eyes, my darling friend,
Their play, so passionate and bright’ning,
When a sudden stare up you send,
And like a heaven-blown lightning,
It’d take in all from end to end.
But there’s more that I admire :
Your eyes when they’re downcast
In bursts of love-inspired fire,
And through the eyelash goes fast
A somber, dull call of desire… »
– Fyodor Ivanovich TYUTCHEV, 1836

About Gilivanka Kedzior & Barbara Friedman

Red Bind, the artist duo Gilivanka Kedzior and Barbara Friedman are based in France. ‘As visual artists working with performance, video, sound and photography, they analyze the confrontation to otherness and its inter-thematic with subjects such as: social yokes; dominant/dominated relationships; codes and what happens to them out of their context; gender and its limits and ambiguities; issues of the double and of the multiple characters under a single skin; or yet the identity, status and image of Woman.’ They have shown their works extensively both in France and abroad.
