AND I LIVED MY FANTASIES
AND I ACTED ON MY FANTASIES

Video art
Short
In the video "And I Lived My Fantasies", the artist uses the subject of serial killers as a reference point to explore the dark side of human nature, testing the links between sexuality and violence and the limits of rational behavior. The video shows the artist reciting a text constructed from interviews with serial killers found on YouTube. The narrative created by editing together phrases originally spoken by the (male) killers themselves raises questions about control and passion, fantasy and determinism.
