Statement- Abstract:

Another Calvino's short story is about city of Fedora in which, everybody can have a look in the globe and can see a different Fedora. In this story about Fedora, Marco Polo tells to Khan that there must be a place for both Fedoras - big and small ones, as they are both real cities, where both possible and necessary is represent! With both degrees in art and movement, this work is a process in order to explore expression of spiritually through symbols and archetypes, according to Calvino's narrative. In our opinion, Calvino in his work "Invisible cities" describes in a perfect surrealistic manner the Cities of Tomorrows as we think they
will be. The objective of this project is to bring together digital media, anthropology, visual arts and studies, dance and any other field, which is interested in space and digital.

More over goal of this project is to expand on what has so far been VISUAL 'REALITY' and create questions of:
• Space
• Movement
• Sensorial
• Digital

The editing process became the medium itself and forces the viewers to consider meanings, purposes and establishes attitudes toward video editing.
Also for this project we worked with the psychological aspect of glass.The looking-glass self is a social psychological concept, created by Charles Horton Cooley in 1902 (McIntyre 2006), stating that a person's self grows out of society's interpersonal interactions and the perceptions of others. The term refers to people shaping their self-concepts based on their understanding of how others perceive them. Cooley clarified that society is an interweaving and inter-working of mental selves.

Other possible links of our project are the articles with title: "Violation and veiling in Surrealist Photography: woman as fetish, as shattered object, as phallus." by
Hal Foster and "The omnipotence of desire: surrealism, psychoanalysis and Hysteria" by David Lomas.
