Identity means as well feminity and masculinity. One of the main characters that personalize this concept was Rrose Sélavy, an androgynous character from Marcel Duchamp. To identify, the primitive word that identity comes from, is a visual act. Then it belongs to the visual sense. Some psychiatrist has spoken about the mirror stage, when the subject can identify himself in front of the mirror and his own body and mind became completely one, then he gets his identity. It’s like an adolescent process and it’s characterized for transparency and glass sensuality, like Rrose Sélavy tried to express. In this art work Duchamp tries to exemplify the simply complex of transparency.
