The images depict a closer relationship with carnality and intimacy related to female sexuality. The notion of echo blurs the line between reality, desire and fantasy.

An echo
‘Echosystem’ approaches the female sexuality. The title is a play on the words ‘echo’ and ‘ecosystem’.
An echo implies the resonance between two things. It can be as much about two women between them, establishing a carnal dialogue, as about echoing oneself, masturbating, being between one's real "being" and one's fantasy, one's outside and one's inside. The vagueness settles around these two taboos.
An ecosystem implies a resonance between different living beings, but also between living beings and their environment. Like sexuality, the ecosystem is the result of exchanges - of energy or matter - and connections. The ‘environment’ of female sexuality is evoked by representations of its anatomy (such as drawings of female organs) and still life.
