Piotr Bosacki

Utter Rubbish

Piotr Bosacki’s animation Utter Rubbish is about absurdities. The first story concerns the artist’s chain of dependencies and obligations, presented by a character dragging a string of objects behind him. The second is a surreal story about intestinal parasites that leave the human body to lead a second life in sewage pipes. The conventionality of the plot and the artistic means employed give this macabre, absurd, grotesque story an intriguing power.
