I want you to draw me like one of your French girls

The work I want you to draw me like one of your French girls (Video, 09:50 minutes) was part of the autumn show in Hafnarborg Museum in 2019, Everything at the same time, but the show's curators were Starkadur Sigurdarson and Andrea Arnarsdóttir. The work is a video piece that is projected on three walls and has one soundtrack. The video shows women lined up in a black room where they sit and ligh, forming an array of naked bodies. The sound track in the video, sung by the lips located in the women's crotches are national songs normally sung by male choirs but in the video it is sung by a female choir. The work speaks to the societies current discussion but it has a strong implication in the revolutions Me Too and Free the Nipple where women's consensus across backgrounds and looks was the key. In the end all women are equal and together they have the strongest voice. The work is humorous and shows the impact of social media on the vision of the common man. The name of the work refers to the classic movie Titanic, which most people should know, and that scene when Rose says to Jack with full confidence: "I want you to draw me like one of your French girls". The work is a video work projected large on three walls in a a semi-enclosed space inside the showroom where the female choir surrounds the viewer. The women in the work are naked and have a serious face reactions, almost faceless. The choir counts 19 women from approximately 18 to 65 years, but the work's working team are almost exclusively women. All performers and almost all technicians. The sound recording of the work is a recording of the concert of the female choir Graduale Nobili under the direction of Þorvaldur Arnar Davíðsson. Sound recording was in the hands of Egill Árni Pálsson.
