TEJAL SHAH video | installation in plainspeak · ISSUE 1 · ‘09 · 22
art space Transstills from dual channel video installation Tejal Shah (India) and Marco Paulo Rolla (Brazil) 12 min, colour, sound, 2004-5 Male and female, where is the limit? The beard as a macho statement. Jewellery and make-up constructing the female. Two masks that work as a cliché sign of gender for society. What happens when male and female cross these borders? What is the limit of human sexuality? In this work using video & performance, we construct the trans-…formation, mutation, figuration from one gender to its opposite. We try to communicate and make possible a reflection about the exploration of the ascribed opposite gender behaviour as a possible affinity for a human sexual being. Do we appear as what we feel? Many times people can’t realize who they would like to be: which kind of behaviour, sexuality, gender orientation or style of dressing. The screen is divided into two parts, where the two faces are looking at themselves/the audience/the mirror, a man and a man, a man and a woman, a woman and a woman, crossing their original gender, making a transsexual looping. Tejal is a visual artist working with video, photography, performance and installation. Her work, like herself, is feminist, queer, sexy & political. She has exhibited widely in museums, galleries and film festivals in India and internationally. Lately, she has taken to a nomadic existence, living and working out of her laptop. Marco Paulo Rolla, from São Domingos do Prata, Brazil, is a multimedia artist, who works with painting, drawing, print making, ceramics, video, sound, dance and theatre, to explore subjects of daily life. in plainspeak · ISSUE 1 · ‘09 · 23
