Haircut

Video, 3min 33sec, Audio component: yes, 2007

The juxtaposed videos in Haircut show the artist having a long shoulder length hair cut down to the same length of hair as her husband’s. The physical transformation of haircut reflects the assimilation of individual identity into that of the marriage.
