We They, We They - Clare Rojas

Earlier this month I was commissioned to make a short film for the Ikon gallery and had the pleasure of spending a few days with American artist Clare Rojas, whilst she installed her latest exhibition ‘We They, We They’.

Best known for her folk-inspired work, Rojas uses a wide range of media, including painting, installation and print-making, with a smart sense of humour, to make observations on gender relations and representation. This then translates through into her music, which she writes and performs under the alt-country alter ego of Peggy Honeywell.

For the exhibition opening Clare performed her music to a packed out audience and this provided the perfect live soundtrack and backbone to the film.

The video is now live on the Ikon site, so enjoy…
