Are You A Boy Or A Girl? (clip), Chaz Howkins, 2017, film
3 minute clip of a 30 minute film intended to be played on a loop.
Too often strangers feel that the way I look gives them the right to ask me “are you a boy or a girl?”. I created a durational performance film of myself repeating this phrase because when people ask me this, it’s a one off experience for them, but it’s something that stays with me and continues to happen, so the idea is that the film plays continuously and the audience will dip in and out of this interrogative experience.
