Oona's Veil

2000 · 8 min ·

A home-processed, handmade work, revises Charlie Chaplin’s screen test of his adolescent soon-to-be spouse (Oona O’Neill, the daughter of playwright Eugene O’Neill), broken up by irregular interruptions of black emulsion. Frye creates a continuously shifting exchange of glances between her image and the audience: «A surpassingly intense meditation on viewing and being viewed».
