A man takes a self-portrait in the bathroom mirror. His trousers are pulled halfway down, revealing part of his underwear. It is a very domestic scene: we see part of the toilet, the sink, the door ajar, the toothbrush... The playfulness lies in the fact that the work could represent either the photograph the man is taking or the scene itself at the very moment he is doing so, suggesting an invisible symmetry.
