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
