The Judy Spots
A five-part animated video for an MTV special on women's health issues. Integrating puppets, drawings, cut-outs, video and masking techniques, Benning creates a pocket-size geography permeated by a sense of isolation and malaise. The voices of Judy and her bossy friend Courtney (with reference to Ms Love), delivered by Benning and Kathleen Hanna (of Bikini Kill notoriety), render the passionate and ambiguous nature of grrrl politics in a blaze of wit, anger and resignation.
