"Traumatic Encounter Forever!"
"Traumatic Encounter Forever!" is a part of an open- ended multimedia tragicomic
epic "A Tragic Bambi," which revolves around recurring images of urination of the
dismembered body of Bambi as an idée fixe. Originated out of lovers' absurd longing to eradicate their own discontinuous beings, "Traumatic Encounter Forever!" examines our passionate aspirations expressed in the conjunction of aesthetics,
politics and religion. Why do we aim for transcendence or sublimation through art?
Why do we believe that art could or should bring social change? "Traumatic Encounter Forever!" does not offer answers to those questions, but rather examines
the symbolic structure that generates such questions. The revealed is the construction of western subjectivity, deranged from the perspective of a racial and
sexual other. www.kikoworld.net
