Persona

Persona is Ingmar Bergman's infamous 1966 film starring Liv Ullman and Bibi Andersson.

Janus-faced Liv Ullman.

Two women becoming one.

Interestingly enough persona is an Italian word that derives from the Latin for "mask" or "character", derived from the Etruscan word "phersu", with the same meaning. Ia m fascinated with the origin of words and their transformations. It is often the story of centuries that are encased in one simple term. This word brings me back to masks and disguises:
