\nFollowing a similar approach, several 8mm and 16mm home movies (c1930s – c1970s) are assembled into a hand-made collage reflecting on the personal and cultural process of “becoming” a woman. The original found footage, mainly portraying women intent in their domestic lives, has been collected obsessively from eBay auctions, then remediated through a number of artisanal techniques: celluloid decay in soil and water, emulsion scratching, painting on film, digital manipulation and finally, emulsion lifting. The latter by soaking the film in a bath, slowly removing the image from its base, and placing it on another, a celluloid graft. Troubling these images acts as a visceral intervention in which the personal lived experience of the filmmaker is interwound with the iconography of womanhood in the collected home movies, relying on eBay as an invaluable repository to counter the official archives. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=”2″][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”714680″]Editing <\/span><\/em>Federica Foglia
