The Hanged Woman

The video shows a female figure - the artist herself - in an inverted position. The figure is located in an indefinite space in which there are black curtains, which with its composition suggest on the stage, as well as the possibility that the curtains obscured the view of the background. The whole display is static, with minimal movements of figures and curtains. Placing herself in the position of a figure that characterizes the 12th card of the Tarot - The Hanged Man - the artist plays with the association of symbolic meanings of the card and occult ritual, placing them in her own context, which can be read as female context, as the artist's context, as a context of contemporary existence in search for answers.
