"CANNED FRUIT"

"CANNED FRUIT"

2007, 00:11:30

An exploration of gender, texture, color, the miracle of canning, food, creativity, productivity, and what it means to be a very hairy and scary faery. Filmed in my tiny Brooklyn apartment living room, when I was living in Sunset Park. Most of the audio track is from a 1956 educational film about the value of canned food in our society, and how the can industry will save us. The other audio is taken from an old PSA about bad grooming habits.

The audio tracks are taken from public domain films, courtesy of the wonderful online library of the PRELINGER ARCHIVES. Check them out!
