The King Sews the Queens Pyjama Bottoms (1999)

A composition of video stills- variable dimensions.

Observed moments in the romantic life of an older heterosexual couple. The artist’s parents are caught in subtle gestures and willful acts of role-reversing tenderness as their traditional caring roles morph and transform with age. The gender switching is amplified by a preponderance of check /tartan patterns that connect subtly with queer cultural iconographies.
