DANCER Quindell Orton

One dancer, a projection screen, a live camera, some toned abs and an attempt to answer the question: How does a body 'do' masculinity and how do our ideas around masculinity shape our world?
Combining pop culture, politics and personal interviews, Making of a Man explores hypermasculinity, masculine heroics and the vulnerable sides of masculinity. It's a look at the leaky containers we build for masculine identity and the ways in which constructions of masculinity contribute to the patriarchy's drawn-out staying power. How can we find other ways of being in the world together beyond the rigidly chiseled codes of masculinity?
