Another postgrad tosser indulging her penchant for the seduction of the image and fondness for excess as thesis-scrawling procrastination.

Keen on validating surrealism as a lifestyle choice, the semiotics of moustache stylings, whimsical wankery and waxing pretentiously theoretical, often extremely bad or extremely ridiculous films, and dragging Bataille into everything. Will experience great difficulty resisting pictures of animals in Victorian attire.
