‘Some guys are thinkers and some guys are doers’ - ‘Some guys are thinkers and some guys are doers’, by Abigail Jones

In it, a character generates four increasingly fantastical and desperate accounts of him/herself around a set of recurring incidents, objects and phrases.

The solo project is a reverie of self-aggrandizement that forms part of the artist’s long-running Heroic Men Series, which both caricatures and glorifies masculine archetypes as depicted in film, literature and advertising.
