Miller’s vengeful retelling of the Greek myth ‘Leda and the Swan’ repositions Leda as a villainess to explore her agency, the pleasure of revenge and imagine an alternative future unchained to the image of her aggressor who she has been tied to throughout art history. She interacts with a colossal egg sculpture and large scale swan puppet, which is brutally decapitated, gutted and adorned as she reigns victorious. This work explores explicit themes around sexual violence, reckoning with past trauma and vigilantism.
