Visiting galleries and exhibitions gave me great inspiration for this project, helping me to develop the ideas I was working with. One particular exhibit that has had influence upon my project is Weed Killer (pictures below), a film installation by artist Patrick Staff that was at the New Museum in an exhibition called &#8216;Trigger: gender as a tool and a weapon&#8217;. It explores gender in society, whilst also exploring sexuality, being transgender and cancer treatment.<\/p>\n<p>I really liked the format of the film; it was 17 minutes long and whilst usually I probably wouldn&#8217;t watch an entire film whilst in an art gallery, I stayed throughout as the dialogue was so compelling. I found it really interesting how the artist had subtly linked imagery, such as hair, with gender perception, but edited it to become almost unrecognisable. The film also made me realise I wanted to focus my film on a narrative created by personal experiences; I started interviewing people for my film following this trip.<\/p>\n<p>BIBLIOGRAPHY<\/p>\n<p>STAFF, P.
