The Tilt of the Earth

2024, Video with sound, 15 min

The film borrows elements from folklore and mythology and is based on the myth of Sisyphus seen through a feminist lens.
In the film, Sisyphus is a strange female cyclops, played by the Norwegian performance artist Rita Marhaug. Rolling the large boulder up the mountain, she encounters different challenges and undergoes strange bodily transformations.
