*There are two additional versions: In This Place (Anna Moore) and Anna Moore

statement:
Double Bind (Anna Moore) considers the subjectivity of Anna as a character caught within the post-war era genres of psychological melodrama and film noir. Anna repeats daily routines as the video frame slips in time revealing glimpses of a mysterious event. Her intangible voice shifts from calm disconnected recollections to off-screen cries of rage. The video combines the film genre’s framework with structuralist investigations of cinematic codes, mise-en-scene, character, and narrative.

*This version was created from a three-channel video and sound installation entitled Anna Moore.
