Abstract

Like taking a shit and trying to cover it up with perfume, ENTITLED is a sui-southern freak show, self-obsessed and sexy, a “terrible, flirtatious text,” which explores the boundaries of what one might consider to be obscene, politically incorrect, and nonsensical, even in an age of absurdity and senselessness. ENTITLED is an exercise in and an exploration of excess. The work questions gender and sexuality via camp in an attempt to sister the disaster of these massive heart attacks.
