Daisies

 

A wind up music box ballerina struggles against the confines of the presumed elegance imposed on her by the fantasy of female delicacy. Her movements, at first robotic and doll-like, evolve into something more fluid and destructive—she strips her pretty white puffy dress (akin to a wedding gown), then futilely attempts to find a way back into it, perhaps a metaphor for womanhood’s perennial struggle with the desire for freedom vs. the desire for loveliness. Are these her colorful collectibles that litter the room around her, or is she merely one of them? The absurd fairytale unfolds.

 

Food for thought for the fashion punks who came to consider these pearly inquiries into the penetrating implications of femininity and its strictures. Check out the scene below.
