Imagery, drawn from what seems like hundreds of different films is overlaid and combined in a promissory rainbow of new meanings and impossible scenarios, with the unsettling feel of daylight shadows.

The mutability of the body and the mobility of identity: queered pop culture, drag, lip-sync and performance.
