Untitled, (fios - threads) (1974-77)
Video, 2’30”, B&W, silent

The 1977 video has no cuts and is fully done in a single close-up shot, one long take. At first, we see only the slightly inclined face, the shoulders, and parts of the artist’s hands, hands that begin the gesture of wrapping her own head with a nylon thread.
