Part of ‘Lesbian Love Story’, Slade MFA Degree Show, 2018.














In 'Lesbian Love Story' fake eyelashes, human hair, lace and leafs creates a lesbian love story as a blue and white flickering in front of your eyes. Abstract gestures of bodies and shapes not defining characters, plot, or narrative and shown as a loop giving no beginning or end, create a queer alternative questioning the mainstream representation of lesbian storytelling created with a male gaze.

'Lesbian Love Story' use the cyanotype to investigate ideas of lesbian representation, imagery and visibility. Using light as exposure and the chemicals as a method of capturing moments of time as changes in nuances of blue, lesbian bodies transforms into abstract body parts conveying feelings instead of specific identities or biological bodies.
