Cry Daggers
 

Cry Daggers stitches together varied footage shot on iPhones and VHS recorders — from excerpts of L.A. car rides, to clips of the artist’s nieces’ private performances, to GIF-like self shots — punctuated by an ambulating script describing episodes of retaliation and lust. The possible relationships between femininity and hysteria, machismo and industrialism are left to drift somewhere in between contingency and essence, threaded through the intimate and the shared.
