A body that remains perpetually indistinct lacks subjectivity, ownership, identity, and a face, with its voice also disjointed. What remains are masks, anonymity, invisibility, and imagination, becoming a mirror of fantasy.
When deconstructing the fantasy within the narrative of Oriental Romanticism in Paris, in the spaces created by subsequent reproduction and reorganization, connections become impossible. What posture does the body assume under the gaze of the Other? Are we mere spectators?
