“In a quiet seaside town where nothing happens, best friends Billy and Lola go to extreme lengths to save a hamster.”
“This video performance piece is based on the idea of love, care, and the self. By creating a cast of my body, I gave body to the external perspective of what it’s like to take care of myself. With this project, I aim to make people intrigued by the weirdness that this video conveys regarding obsessive caring, and make them reflect on how natural caring should be.” – Maria Martinez
