In this video, a cinematic reference to the Wizard of Oz’s Good Witch Glinda’s transport balloon, delivers a bare-fleshed female tattooed with the ubiquitous Men’s Room graphic ascending a stack of hay. Here, a gendered body and cultural myth conflate with essential elements, and conspire to ‘disrupt’ a rocket launch bound for outer space.
Made with the support of the artist’s residency at the Center for Metamedia, Plasy, Czech Republic
