SHOW ME SOME LEGS
I decided to tell stories via the legs while referring to the expression Show me Some Legs or show a little leg, which seems to come from the movies where female characters showed their legs in order to get picked up quicker while hitchhiking. I’m giving it a twist, as in these cases I’m making the legs do a humourous roleplay in which they, the legs, find themselves in situations where the spectator can imagine what they are thinking or feeling. This series talks about roleplaying while getting to understand yourself. I’ts about my relationship with myself and the world around me.
