I have decided that photography and video art will indeed be my main form of focus, creating various pieces of art depicting different typical stages of a woman's life. The subjection of woman, whilst looking into feminist theory. I have been watching movies that are typical of displaying woman in a submissive, well behaved, sophisticated, typical 'perfect woman, perfect housewife' demur. Hitchcock explained his preference for a certain kind of actress whose sex appeal is "indirect": "You know why I favor sophisticated blondes in my films? We're after the drawing-room type, the real ladies, who become whores once they're in the bedroom." In Vertigo James Stewart forces a woman to dye her hair blonde. One of Hitchcock's earliest films, The Lodger (1927), features a serial killer who stalks blonde women.

In comparison to this I have been looking into films that are trying to break away from this stereotype; Feminism style movies such as 'Thelma and Louise', or 'Pretty Woman'. Films with the essence of the never-ending fight for equality. "Thelma and Louise sharply contrasts the other road films we have viewed in which men are telling the story and women are visual stimuli, or sexual objects the men merely meet along the way. I think the term feminism describes the Utopian view of the equality between men and women in terms of what both genders are able/expected to do, in terms of personal characteristics, actions, and lifestyles." THELMA AND LOUISE: A FEMINIST FILM CRITIQUE.

So through looking into these types of films I would like to recreate these scenes of these woman through photography and film.
