Director Statement

This short film brings together images of Mannequins photographed in shop windows. My current practice includes drawing, collage, photography and film. What brings the work together is a concern with the act of looking. My main focus is to bring aspects of lived experience in to view but not in an obvious way. Of interest are particular moments in time, location, architecture and everyday spaces
