a very brief history
Where does our virginity come from? Where does it go when we 'lose' it? Virginity: a (very) brief history" is a short animated film that explores the origin story, present and potential future of virginity as we understand it in the 'Western' world.
This was my first long-term animation project, from the end of the first year of my BA. I researched the history and present of virginity as a social construct and condensed my findings into a short animation. The video shown above is a re-mastered version of this University project that was displayed as part of the Here and Now arts festival arranged by the Her og Der mentorship programme.
