Two men of similar appearance – the one on the left the artist himself – try to imitate the gestures of the other. These mimicked movements are imperfect; they suggest disorientation and tend to turn into each man’s own gesture, again to be taken up by the other. All this involves quite a bit of good fun, but also contains a fair amount of reflection on the reprocessing of perception and the oscillation between what is one’s own and what is not, as well as the imperfection of replication.
