Rati "This work was inspired by images of people on the internet. Around 2000, online chatrooms started to become popular. However, most people would just want to show their bodies or look at women’s breasts and genitals. Phoebe Man created a walking vagina to question whether women are just pieces of meat. In the video, Rati lives like an ordinary woman, she would go to the library to read, and menstruate each month. With her look, even if she were doing something ordinary, it would look absurd. The work attempts to challenge gender stereotypes, and looks at women’s social and cultural images in a deconstructive manner, to open up an imaginative space." - timesartscenter.org

I Have Always Been Watch... A young woman wanders about an abandoned cinema, rummaging through its storerooms and curiously exploring the mechanical and celluloid detritus that has been left behind. A sense of transgression is in the air – the woman is, after all, trespassing – and she finds herself constantly being watched by several men who, we assume, oversee the disused property. This vague threat notwithstanding, she projects scraps of old footage, creating a freeform narrative all her own, breathing new life into forgotten artifacts.

Blue Lightnings Anatoly Ruchyov is quite a talented guy. One day he decides to enter a prestigious Soviet university — the institute of international relations.

Anatoly decides to go to military service and reach heights in this area. At first, it is a little lost, but, after the time has elapsed, it is mastered, because there is nowhere to go. Slowly he turns into a real exemplary fighter.

she's not gonna get more... "in the film "daybreak" willie's character admonishes torch, who's been avoiding talking about willie's deceased mother, his lover. willie lets torch know "she's not gonna get more dead. she's as dead as she's gonna get." this video uses footage from "being mary jane" and select excerpts of black women vampires to meditate on what makes someone, and what it might look like to be, more than dead." - ariella tai

The Killing of Otsuya

Sex Bowl All forms of human sport become sites for sexual play and celebratory eroticism. “The tape’s images are quick, suggestive, and sexy: fingers moving into bowling balls, shoe-smelling and toe-sucking, a dog wearing chain jewelry, fish being wrapped at the market, young naked couples having sex.... Edited like a music video, the image track is a constant flow of fetishes that lure us into the promiscuous pace of girls who keep lists of their sexual encounters.” —Chris Straayer
