Girlhood and the Plastic Image

Girlhood and the Plastic Image adopts a trans-media approach to images of transformation in film and digital culture. It considers the functions and power of metamorphic girls through case studies from the 19th through the 21st centuries—including the anime of Mamoru Oshii and Ryutaro Nakamura, the animations of Walt Disney and Czech surrealist Jan Švankmajer, the digital videos of French artists Pierre Huyghe and Philippe Parreno, the landmark Internet art piece mouchette.org, and proto-digital artwork by Lewis Carroll and Joseph Cornell.
