The five videos of Hommage à … deal with the same theme as repetition-in-difference, as a continual tracing and retracing, of the figure fold and unfold in the visual field. Everything is centred on the concept of self-observation and an exploration of the body. Dujourie develops a recurrent strategy of her work: drawing attention to the space beyond the visual field.

In Hommage à … IV, there is a high set horizon, the idea that the woman is closer to us and farther to the right makes it easier for the viewer to step into the image.
