Take a wondrous, challenging journey into an enchanted world beyond human."Quotes are scattered throughout the piece, which seem to refer to some sort of religious text. The use of these passages points to the piece having a beating heart there is an actual message the artists are getting at, even if its obscure. The language of religious dogma which tends to be exaggerated fantastic passionate naïve fits perfectly into an overall vocabulary of camp and the artists appropriation of it is their bid for seriousness. You cant help but be struck by the how genuine the quotes sound, even if you know deep down that they refer to something the artists find insidious." Amy Freelunch"The work is pukey, zany, hilarious, naughty, and celebrates the strangeness of suburbia while also acknowledging its sad and horrible chains. Furthermore, the artists even give you a living room area to sit and contemplate the politics of beauty and the politics of who has the power to name beauty; to question the politics of personal taste and aesthetics, to question ourselves, and the crazy world we live in. Isnt that what art should do?"MonCherrie AfterthoughtCamp and SL by Amy FreelunchKitsch & Camp in SL (a response) Less
