This video project was developed in a web residency program (@olhaobarrafunda) during the quarantine. An embroidery floral pattern is recreated in video and each little square of the original image (each stitch) is replaced by a fragment of moving images. All the fragments are excerpts of gay porn videos - it's not explicit, but bit's possible to notice a body movement in the video. "A simple flower" deals with the handcraft works aesthetic, mostly associated with woman crafts in the past, and infiltrates a queer material on it. It's a research about what are the desires hidden behind the gestures and images, how an image is composed (from the material to digital) and how the popular images that are reproduced in craftworks reaffirm gender stereotypes and behaviors
