Pol(e)arity of Self is a short film that underscores multiple, contradictory selves and how they navigate the internalisation of an external gaze. Throughout, the pole is simultaneously used a splitting point and a meeting point for a self that is active and in control, a self that feels vulnerable, trapped, and objectified, and an ambiguous self that is attempting to understand all the above.
This short film was released online on 26th October 2020 in preparation for an Instagram Live audience / artist discussion, via Metal UK.
