Inspired by a short story by Man Booker Prize winning author A.S Byatt, Medusa’s Ankles, is a short film by Bonnie Wright, staring Kerry Fox, Jason Isaacs & Chanel Cresswell. The story follows the experiences of a middle-aged university lecturer as she visits a beauty salon. A copy of French artist Matisse’s painting, “Rosy Nude” attracts her into the salon. Her self-image & desire to maintain a natural hairstyle are central to the story as is her relationship with the salon owner. A theatrical and dramatic work which points out the many differences in the way we view ourselves and the way in which we are viewed by others. This installation offers a unique opportunity to experience  the film within a working hair salon.
