Its been a packed few days of shooting.
Sunday, I meet up with Casey of Craft Cartel and Trashbag Rehad to do some “Cunt Fling ups”. As Casey busily added public hair to the last few vaginas, a friend of Casey’s, Tash and myself made cloth roses to represent the flower that the clitoris is!
Casey had told me she had organised a few people to come along and help throw the “cunts” over power lines but I wasn’t expecting the 15 people who turned up! There is something very powerful about a group of people walking along the street together!
Flinging the cunts proved to be more challenging than what I thought and when each person finally achieved it was greeted with jubilation! An uplifting and empowering time for craft and vaginas everywhere!
Monday night, I went off and shot some footage of “Died Pretty”, a trashbag rehab gathering to beautify swine flu masks. Some amazing creations and the final parade was hilariously MCed by Erin Tasmania, who made me laugh so much I had difficulty holding my camera still! I had to fight for space with a lovely woman, Claire from SBS’s show “Insight” and when I arrived Casey was engaged in an interview for ABC 774…what a media whore!! hee hee
As a contrast, next Monday I’m off to shoot “Brown Owls” with Pip Lincolne as they learn and share the art of embroidery. I might even drag out mine and do some stitching myself as I am in need of some manual creativity as shooting so much has left me little time to craft!
