<\/a><\/p>\nI’d like this experiment to investigate and reflect on MAN from my perspective as a cisgender female, and the implications of having the characteristics gendered in different etymological frameworks. For example, examining characteristics such as being strong-willed, outspoken or ‘tough’, and how these can be perceived as positive or negative depending on language: strong-willed vs bossy, outspoken vs opinionated, emotional vs hysterical.<\/p>\n
The work will reflect on several incidences over my own experience, starting with being referred to as a tomboy through to being referred to (especially in an online context) as bossy, loud, opinionated or hysterical.<\/p>\n
I’m interested in how to express these experiences in the context of an artwork, and am considering using the film from which my word was selected as a starting point. I’m going to watch the film to better understand it, and am considering inserting myself into the film in some way.<\/p>\n
I’m going to explore and look at performing masculinity as seen in the film, and am considering how I might do this successfully. I’m considering performing the monologue featured in my selected 21 seconds of film (see the Results page in the Random Data Generator menu) on a greenscreen and overlaying and tracking this over the actual footage. I think this would explore a few things: most superficially, it is a direct reference to\u00a0mansplaining<\/em>\u00a0(as I am literally going to be ‘speaking over’ a man),and on a deeper level it speaks to power dynamics within interactions between men and women\/NB\/X. I think it would also extend the critique of male\/masculine militarism by subverting the long-held perception that women don’t belong in the military, or any proximity to violence. I also like that it speaks directly to notions of power, as I’m erasing the man and erasing not only his agency, but literally his entire person.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
