Creating grotesque narratives using the parodic mode

Artists primarily driven by a desire to create an alternative reality by constructing and telling narratives. The storytelling takes on a grotesque and parodic form (exaggerating the protagonists’ features, attitudes, body type). (John BOCK, Mika ROTTENBERG)

Human-scale object inscribed in a dramatic threat/protection relation

The artist creates a work that takes human scale into account, establishing a certain proximity with the spectator. Here, the proximity is used to establish a dramatic relation based on threat or, conversely, protection vis-à-vis the visitor. (Yinka SHONIBARE, Adel ABDESSEMED)
