Un Beso was made in the mid-90s and represented, for obvious reasons, a thematic transgression at the time of its presentation in the Spanish context. The video travels through different spaces, among which are the contradictions implicit in personal relationships or collaborative work, and it does so through a minimalist image composition that alludes, through the use of black and white, to the first performative videos made in the 60s/70s. A heated discussion between the two artists, the topic of which is irrelevant, serves as a sound frame for a close-up of a long kiss. During the action, faces seem to fight to occupy the center of the screen while escaping the gaze. The video is a kind of game in which a fiction with hints of reality and a reality with hints of fiction merge, causing a paradoxical ambiguity.
