Here, the duel is approached as a dialogue, an encounter reminiscent of Platonic conversations, where two figures share the same “weapons”: reason, speech, and defence.
Honour, risk, and participation become ethical codes: the acceptance of danger, the tribute paid simply for taking part, the sacrifice even when the innocent is defeated. The sound of the clash is inaudible to others, heard only by the opponents themselves, like a secret covenant. The installation explores what remains when ritual disappears, how honourable confrontation is transformed into image, into trace, into an uninhabited, silent dialogue.
