Zoë Is Afraid of Flowers

Add to selection Download PDF

This urban fairy tale follows a woman on a shopping excursion. On this particular day, she finds herself browsing unsuccesfully until she comes across a dress that intrigues her... Using flowers and fire as metaphors, the video speaks of beauty, fear, and touch, juxtaposing learnt behaviour with the desire for a sensory (perhaps magical) understanding of the world.
