María Cañas deploys satire in spliced video collages on love and murder that call to mind the films of Hitchcock and Kubrick and the political collages of Hannah Hoch.Hypnotic, dark and funny, Cañas’ cinematic collage muses on love, longing and death over images of art and film heroines and their doppelganger reflections. Desire floats in a hall of dark mirrors where the subject and object of love are the same. Raucous laughter is a destabilising and subversive tool, a delirious state from which a different truth might be found. Red is the colour of both lust and murder. Cañas works with stolen fragments and faded moments, abundant and ignored. As Hitchcock advised – Film your murders like love scenes, and film your love scenes like murders.
