Sometimes a kiss is... not just a kiss (1 of 2) (2006)

3 min 10 sec2 channel installation / Digital Video / Colour / Silent

One of two videos from an installation consisting of two videos, a sculptural object, and pink imitation-satin curtains.

"Sometimes a kiss… is not just a kiss is a visually seductive body of work: fetishistic, slippery and elusive, as it manoeuvres its way through the peripheral zones of overlapping gender codes, counter colonisations, and the destabilisation of boundaries between notions of masculinity and femininity."
