rent or purchase video

Using the conventional cliché of a woman alone in a room – A Room of One’s Own – this video rapidly veers off into burlesque transgression and a psychological revelation of the creature called Hedda. Creature? Woman? Alter Ego of the filmmaker? The id or the little red fireman?In a reckless 18 minute installation Hedda’s happy house is inhabited, furnished, deconstructed and ultimately repossessed.
