Video (34:31): Shortfilm, Love Bite – Laurie Lipton and Her Disturbing Black & White Drawings (2016), by directed by James Scott.

Excerpt from the video description: ‘Sundance award winning editor James Scotts documentary directorial debut Love Bite chronicles Laurie Liptons life and prolific body of black & white work spanning over fifty years. Largely ignored by the mainstream art world, her creations are perhaps too real, too raw and show us a portrait of ourselves were not willing to see.

No one on the planet has drawn more than Laurie Lipton. With millions of tiny strokes of her humble pencil, Lauries haunted images seek answers to some of the most uncomfortable themes in our culture – fear, politics, sexuality, murder, mayhem, greed, and indifference. But what compels her to live a life of isolation drawing is neither black nor white.’
