 | Catfight: (Hello, Nurse) Short Film by Kirsten Johnson
(click on the image to the left or film title above to view the video, new window will open) |
With rich strokes, drips, highlights and watertight washes, Kirsten Johnson’s latest series, Catfight, vibrantly captures our complex and complicated fascination with girl-on-girl violence. Decked out as Geishas, stewardesses and sexy nurses, Johnson’s girls scratch, gouge, pinch, poke and hair pull their way through a fetishized landscape that isn’t always paved with the male gaze.
