Woman
The experimental documentary “Woman" addresses hurdles women face on a day to day basis. It brings attention to the injustices and disrespect every woman experiences and helps them to feel heard in a world that tells them to be quiet. Women from all over the world provided videos of themselves without makeup. Women that have experienced these things. The goal is to bring attention to these problems and make it more personal by seeing the women these things have happened to while listening to this story.

Kaylie MacGillis is a Filmmaker and Photographer in the Metro Detroit area of Michigan. Pulling her inspiration from artist John Baldessari, she focuses on creating films and taking pictures that showcase the beauty of the world that not everyone sees. Addressing a variety of social justice issues while also balancing a fun and happy environment is of utmost importance to her. Capturing moments in time through a camera, whether it be through filmmaking or photography, is how she chooses to share her unique creativity with the world.
To paraphrase John Baldessari, I told people it was art so they believed it was art. Art is anything you say it is. From my perspective, art is each individual artist's way of showing you how they view the world. This is why each person's creative expression is so incredibly different and unique. The art a person creates provides a bridge to inside their mind for the people experiencing it. My work is a look inside my creative brain for my viewers. I feel blessed to be able to share my creativity with others and I will forever continue to create until the day I die because otherwise there's no reason to live.
