a body is a body is a body

Cat McClay, Éiméar McClay

This is a new video work by artist duo Cat and Éiméar McClay. It entwines Catholic prayers with queer experience. Narrated by a written text, language folds and falls in on itself. Animated tableaus of Catholic paraphernalia and strikes of elemental weather accompany the words. Together, they enact the historically fraught relationship between queerness and the Catholic church.
