What the hell is it with catfights?
It's not like I spent family movie nights watching sleazy 70's soft porn - why am I so obsessed? What's the flipping pull? Oh, and there's a pull...
The film explores my own response to the idea of girl-on-girl violence as I create a series of paintings where geishas, nurses and stewardesses battle it out in oils. Why is it that this aggression gets morphed into images that are sexually charged?
A funny, thoughtful, visually striking piece about women, sexual roles, artistic creation and how imagery can be both ridiculous and profound at the same time. This by a painter/filmmaker with strong and occasionally guilty feminist leanings.
