The following short films are a part of the Wordmills and Baboons series of works. These were a hoot to make and the monkey main character improvised all of the funniest stuff – sometimes making me laugh so hard I couldn’t hold the camera steady.

The Monkey Mischief series

A cheeky monkey sets out on a cunning plan to subvert gender stereotypes. These were created as teasers for the the exhibition. Hopefully intriguing people enough to come along to the show and see what it was all about.

Reverse Gender readings

Forest Freaks   (5m34s)

A five minute art film, using a section of a real Mills and Boon novel, read in reverse gender as the narrative. This film played in the gallery along with the rest during the exhibition.

Her Desperado   (1m13s)

A single page of a Mills and Boon novel red in reverse gender.
