Shot during the 2020 US election, this video was an attempt to create a contemporary document about our current political landscape, focusing on six women. By focusing on the women who have to live in the constant shadow of their presidential husbands, DRAG became not only an appropriate language to celebrate them, but also a medium to bring them into dialogue with each other.
This work was originally conceived for a multi-channel video installation.
By Josh Spear with additional voiceover by John Moran, special thanks to Gard Strand. Created for Tuesday Salon with Max Rademann, presented by HELLERAU - European Centre for the Arts and Zentralwerk Dresden.
