The brittleness of sensuality is caught in silk cloths and walls of tin-foil. Erotic visions guide the spectator along moments of love and orgasm up to the dramatic climax of birthgiving.

My Heart (1986)

A visual poem about the relation between a woman and a city. In this expressionistic piece of work emotional interplays are coloured with synthetic video...

The story of Merlín in an experimental manner.

Pola Weiss' first videoart. It shows a series of images in shape of a flower with different colors with experimental techniques.

A poetic video piece in which Weiss alternates between hand-held shots of women that are surviving in the streets of Mexico City and colourful, kaleidoscopic forms. In a very personal style she combines sound, color, abstractions, reportage, rhythm. A unique melange of realism, absurdism and fantastical, a sort of eerie fairytale that holds a profound social commentary. – Mila van der Weide

Pola Weiss confronts monumental history with romanticized representations of indigeneity, exposing the myths embedded in Mexico’s visual culture. An experimental collage where images of the pyramids of Teotihuacán collide with the romanticized indigenous figures of Jesús Helguera.
