When I Put My Hands On Your Body
David Wojnarowicz (camera by Marion Scemama)
1989, usa, 8mm film transferred to Beta and digital video, 4 min, english with English sdh
Featuring the lines from Wojnarowicz’s eponymous silkscreen, When I Put My Hands On Your Body renders the text into a tentative homoerotic act. Filmed by Scemama in a series of sensual close-ups of male bodies, the video depicts an all-consuming sense of intimacy, beauty and desire, that echo through time and history.
