Back To You

Two lovers meet each other unexpectedly after not being in contact for some time.

The theory of male gaze implied that my academically informed creative choices were not impartial. Derived from Freudian-theories of desire, it assumes that what a person values will be reflected in where they turn their gaze; this also applies to where a person would place a camera. To fight this instinct, I invited collaborator Miss Dianto to take the directorial role, to let this work become a reflection of her desires and gaze.

Though the theories are incomplete, where male- and female-gaze differs is in the aesthetics of tacticility.
