Weed Killer 2017 ( 6)

Patrick Staff’s newest work was inspired by artist-writer Catherine Lord’s memoir The Summer of Her Baldness (2004)—a moving and often irreverent account of the author’s experience of cancer. At the heart of Weed Killer is a monologue—adapted from Lord’s moving and often irreverent book—in which an actress reflects upon the chemically induced devastation of chemotherapy. This monologue is intertwined with comparatively otherworldly sequences, including choreographic gestures shot with high-definition thermal imaging. The film suggests a complex relationship to one’s own suffering and draws into focus the fine line between alternately poisonous and curative substances.

Dear Hester (Reversed) 2015

Dear Hester (Reversed) explores queer intergenerational relationships negotiated through historical materials. The film uses a video document of British performance artist Hester Reeve reversed and re-edited to include a dialogue with the artist, through which Staff interjects a queer dialogue on care and performance, image and prosthesis.

Hevn 2022

Hevn cuts together digital and analogue filmmaking techniques with poetry, hand painted animation and industrial sound. the work combines influence from Stephen Dwoskin's exploration of pleasure and pain in the sick or debilitated body with Staff's own video and poetry practice exploring the volatility of queer and trans bodies through dreaming, volatility, inebriation and exhaustion.
