MEDIATHEK

"Morning radio feeds me my first meal of the day. Work informs me that overtime will achieve a pay rise. My phone bill is three months overdue. My mother calls me for the 7th time to remind me that I haven't called her. I get mugged on the way home from work. A couple of bruises and $2.20 to the offender. I come home to my 30m² apartment and wonder when I'll ever be able to afford a bigger place. I turn on the TV only to hear of the worlds latest terror attacks. I flick through Vogue magazine convinced that I'm the ugliest woman alive. I consider plastic surgery for a moment. I have a physical disorder. I have mental trauma. I've gone under." Anonymous ”šUnder Violent Objects' questions the influence of media, social expectations and cultural/political structure upon society. Are we aware of the effect that it has upon our personal being?

In collaboration with video-duo Photone, 'Under Violent objects' draws a window into one persons advance and struggle towards a peaceful existence upon our planet Earth. (Quelle: Dock 11)
