Happy House: The id, the Kid and the Little Red Fireman. A Clean Sweep

Gunilla Josephson

2001, 18:00 minutes, colour, Swedish / Gibberish

TAPECODE 645.06

Using the conventional cliché of a woman alone in a room - A Room of One's Own - this video rapidly veers off into burlesque transgression and a psychological revelation of the creature called Hedda. Creature? Woman? Alter Ego of the filmmaker? The id or the little red fireman?

In a reckless 18 minute installation Hedda’s happy house is inhabited, furnished, deconstructed and ultimately repossessed.

Performer Anna-Lena Johansson
