DIGIMAG 68 - OCTOBER 2011

"We always let the public decide freely on the meaning, we believe in
the idea of an emancipated spectator, who always has a personal reading
and adds a new meaning to complement the work. However, this position
brings us sometimes to be as literal as possible. For example, in some
project we have affirmed “State Murderer”: there is not a lot to
interpret here. It is clear that we utilize strategies of culture
jamming, ma in an instrumental way, that is , as a communicative
guerrilla and use of mass culture with the goal to make ironic
statements on the homogeneity of popular culture and the seduction of
advertisement."
