Imagine that Sleeping Beauty awakens from her hundred-year sleep after the prince’s kiss and suddenly becomes fully aware of the invasive nature of the moment. The video installation I woke up angry this morning by Meryem Saral is a reflection on the image of women in Hollywood films. Using sampled video and audio material, it offers a new narrative about the awakening out of a passive coma state and the active development of rage. Presented on analogue televisions, the installation delights in anger as an act of purification and an occasion for celebration.

The video installation I woke up angry this morning was Saral’s final project in the Visual Music program at the Institute for Music and Media at the Robert Schumann Hochschule Düsseldorf. The work was supervised by Prof. Dr. Heike Sperling and Marcus Schmickler.
