Animated Video Installation

Presented on a custom clear prison issue CRT television, What is a Man? critiques how advertising and media have historically shaped masculinity. The hand-illustrated visuals evoke vintage ads, while five male voice actors reflect the fragmented, performative nature of manhood. Through this dynamic medium, the video exposes how past ideals can often influence men today.
