Miss Miranda, 2019
Performative video with audio
Dimensions variable
Duration: 04:27 (loop)

In Miss Miranda, the artist overlays and keys out the silhouette of her middle-aged body on the much younger Burlesque contestant Miss Miranda doing a public strip tease act. This contrasts the ways in which bodies are granted permission as well as, denied expressions of desirability and sexuality. In this hapless take on a public practiced erotic seduction, the artist-performer engages with a chair as a partner and foil.
