Publisher's Synopsis
This book is dedicated to one of the most striking and innovative British female directors to reach worldwide acclaim in recent years. Its theoretical focus examines the richly suggestive and highly distinctive style of Hogg's work, her formal and contextual concerns and the vivid expression of female identity contained within her triptych of films - Unrelated, Archipelago and Exhibition. It rethinks her intertextual references, visual language and subject matter in the context of the themes of alienation and female embodiment, metamorphosis and the ethics of desire.
