The Weight of Women's Eyes

The film presents a narrative centered around the interplay of watching and being watched. Set in a bar where eyes wander across bodies, it hints at forbidden desires while transforming playful streetwise sex into an intimate exploration of attraction.

Originally created as part of the two-channel video installation "Girllie Movies," The Weight of Women's Eyes was exhibited at the New Gallery in Calgary in 1993. This connection to a larger installation emphasizes the film's role within the lesbian art movement of the era, showcasing how contemporary art can challenge conventional narratives around desire and identity.
