Womxn_Gleaning is a video work that screened at Ladyfest Berlin, during the concert finale. The projection was installed  inside the performance hall of SO36 for the duration of the event. The video construction includes 3,500 still images collected online throughout the summer of 2011. Searches are based on women artist, writers, philosophers, activist, athletes, entertainers and feminist pop-culture. The piece was performed throughout the five hour event in which I controlled the playback loop and speed of the video. The video's timing shifted in relation to the musical timing of the concert. The installation soundtrack was performed live by the bands, Mensch, Monster and the Immigrant, Respect My Fist and Rodeo.
