Rosemary Loves a Blackberry Plastic Soup

Rosemary Loves a Blackberry is a project by Diana Burkot combining music, performance. and visual art. Burkot is part of a new, Russian feminist post-punk underground which has emerged in the recent years. Her work is always experimental and multilayered – and firm in its anti-patriarchal politics. Her latest video, Plastic Soup, is a surreal mediation on consumption and eco-consciousness.
