In this video I explore how these women can transform their identity and play with it as an elastic, malleable material, with which they reshape their appearance in the world. During lockdown I lived in a house that was built 1900, Rumors said it was a place woman were sent to when they were "crazy" or their husbands wanted to get rid of them. Each room had a different tile pattern, peeling walls bars with no windows but also hidden creepy beauty. This house was half abandoned half waiting to be refurbished and meanwhile cheep to live in so there I met woman on their way renting rooms per month. The slum lord in charge let anyone in that could pay. These women warned me if dangerous characters came, ext. In this 20 min video I try to capture oral wisdom tips as an encyclopedia of resilience.
