She has worked with champion wrestlers, football players, speed-obsessed bikers, synchronized swimmers and equestrians. Biggs often uses the image of the horse as an emblem of female sexual sublimation and masculine power. Her earlier video work dealt with issues of psychosis and psychotropic drugs. |
