AntiPopLTD

We are the nameless and faceless, sorted into neat little demographics based on what prevarication we would most easily swallow. Anti-Pop suggests a deconstruction of “ pop culture iconography" in an examination of it's intention. Our inspiration comes not from the appreciation of something beautiful, but in reaction to something repugnant. We find it exceedingly difficult to participate in the creation of that which is innocuous by nature, thereby
ignoring the tempestuous sociopolitical environment we have come of
age in.

We are the sum total of a generation nurtured by television, playstation, and bad Pixar blockbusters. A public school system taken over by the state has left us bereft of culture, artistic intent, or even basic individuality. We have been duped to the point that even our counterculture has been co opted by corporate interests.
Pop bands indistinguishable from one another, “alternative” clothing selected and available at your nearest shopping mall, rebellion prepackaged for consumption by youths who have nothing to be disaffected by. Our art was born out of a necessity to confront popular culture’s contrived enterprise, and the media’s perpetuation of it. In the tradition of Dadaists, and Anti Artists before us the current
environment obliges a reaction and a consequence, and this is our attempt to provide it.

anti pop is film, visual art, and written word.
