About

Icelandic artist, Dodda Maggy explores the role of women in films, recreating and exaggerating women's traits and stereotypes on screen.

In the film Margret, the character spins around, spiralling out of control whilst raising her hands before she falls over- unable to keep her balance without appearing confused or disorientated.

The film 'I'm not Here' shows a woman in a leotard fading in and out of sight in a domestic setting, the artist here is challenging the representation of women in film and the conclusions viewers make from women's behaviour, appearance and surroundings.
