The Weird Girls Project is an ongoing art piece created and headed by concept artist Kitty Von-Sometime. It evolves ‘Episode’ by ‘Episode’ and the participants mix between those involved from the beginning and new members increasing with every event. Each Episode is planned by Kitty for approximately three months with the participants knowing as little as is possible about the event apart from the date, this includes the concept, location and costumes. As standard there will be a photo shoot and they are aware they will be filmed. The main element of the project is ‘reaction to the unknown’.
Media is produced from each Episode but the project also focuses on the event itself and how the women react, improvise and morph within costume coming together as a group. The women are varying in ages, backgrounds and experience, and do not necessarily know each other before the day. The Project involves ordinary women rather than professional actresses or models and part of the inspiration was to encourage a gain in self confidence within young women, especially focusing around body issues.
So far over 3 years the project has birthed 10 Episodes and 1 ‘special’. It started in a very naive style with the media showing little to no experience and it has matured throughout the life of the project. Kitty creates the concept for each event and in addition has directed, designed and edited on varying Episodes but always draws in the talents of different photographers, costume makers and film makers to bring the concept to life.
