Now you may think that Tank Girl is
cool, she would be if she were real, but face it, she's not. WANKGIRL began her
life when a man approached her to be in his film. He said he was making a movie about
a girl who discovers that her only identity was given to her by her creator. Oh foolish WANK GIRL for not
seeing what was to come! WANK GIRL took copies of the photos and the
film and turned them around to tease and tantalise in her first interactive artwork,
if you mail her in an appropriate manner she might just send you a copy...
unedited.
meanwhile this site can reach a bigger audience than the film maker ever could, so
here it is,
(Imagine Tank Girl
finding she is not real and realising she has no persona of her own, she has only what has
been given to her by Jamie Hewitt).
This film maker thought he was making a valid
point about constructed identities, and perhaps he was...
WANK GIRL made a deal with
the film maker that the film would only ever be shown in context, i.e in its entirety.
The problem was that the film maker didn't keep his side of the deal... Clips and
stills involving semi-nudity were shown around...
Oh foolish film maker for not remembering the strength
and humor of the original WANK GIRL!
