« The Phallic Series : Reproduction, Mother's Hands  »

Differing in their visual idiom and context, these two short pieces of an ongoing series are united however by a phallic theme. « Reproduction », a video documenting a performance, is a fantastical kitschy hybrid of peep show and chemical lab - representing either fevered copulation or replayed castration.

« Mother's Hand » contradicts a series of manual exertions with the projected hands of the Mother. The images are reminiscent of figurine theatricals as well as Expressionism and slapstick comedy.
