There are 5 questions you need to answer. I send you 6 short videos all together

There are 5 questions you need to answer. I send you 6 short videos all together they will be around 45 minets. you choose artworks shown in those videos and answer the question.
This is the overall theme:
In her 1980 essay Powers of Horror, Julia Kristeva defines “abjection” as the liminal (a.k.a. “in-between”) space between the self and the other, where the boundaries of identity and reality blur.  Her classic example is a human corpse, which many people find “creepy” because it is simultaneously like them (a human) and unlike them (dead).  This in-between-ness threatens our sense of self but simultaneously forces us to take sides (e.g., “I am this.” “I am not that.”).  Our revulsion to abject experiences can also reveal the anxieties that shape our identities and behaviors.
But Kristeva also argues for abjection’s transformative potential, which is the context in which this week’s artists (Kiki Smith, Louis Bourgeois, and Marina Abramović) will evoke it.  As you will see on the coming pages of this unit, these artists frequently address unpleasant or taboo subjects for the purpose of highlighting uncomfortable realities.  These affronts to our sensibilities invite introspection and prompt us to reconsider our own relationships to discomfort and vulnerability.
