WONDERLAND 2005 – YEONDOO JUNG

wonderland2342

When I first saw these “kid’s drawing re-enactments” by Korean photo artist Yenndoo Jung, I totally crapped my pants. But I was going over some old bookmarks the other night and thinking: Some of these are kind of half-assed.
Is that mean?

Like in “Afternoon Nap.” They’re supposed to have colored track pants on, not pink and red PJs. Every one seems to have a major error in it. He got the squiggly line wrong in “Cinderella,” the suit color wrong in “Fox’s Magic Trick,” and why couldn’t he have made it six tall yellow flowers in “Giant Flowers” instead of two purple ones? If you’re going to take kids seriously you have to do it literally or the point is lost. These should have been in studios and they should have been EXACTLY the same as the drawings.

I haven’t been this down on a Jung since I realized analytical psychology was bullshit.

This art makes me feel like I’m in love or something equally amazing like the prospect that all of my childhood dreams are still a possibility. But I think the picture with the 6 hanging penises should be more literal for sure.

yeah yeah donna, EVERYTHING’S bullshit. way to kill a crotch phase. listen my dad is a jungian psycho therapist and while I have witnessed that many of his colleagues are definite self absorbed bullshitters, I think he does good work and seems to have helped a lot of fuck ups alright? some of you are just too fucked up to be helped mind. I agree though these recreations should have been exact or it renders the whole thing pointless.. seeing something like this done half-assed is just depressing, kind of like VICE Magazine circa ought 6 thru 8

Being straight edge as a kid is a great way to rebel against: puking, getting pregnant, and wrapping your parent’s car around a tree.

“Wiggers” is a mean word that stings like a motherfucker but, somehow, “Bonkies” doesn’t pack the same wallop.

Pulling back your sleeve to show your tattoos seems queer but that’s what tattoos are: accessories.

You may have noticed there’s a lot of music industry chicks at SXSW all dressed up with no interest in you whatsoever. You may have also noticed you’re not in a band.

STREET CARNAGE is mostly a website that features street fashion critiques called STREET BONERS and compilations of bad television called TV CARNAGE. The site also has a blog, a radio show, and regularly features video shorts made by Gavin and Derrick.

STREET CARNAGE is also a live presentation you can have in your town where Gavin shows a Street Boners "Best Of" and Derrick shows his latest TV Carnage endeavors.

STREET BONERS will eventually be compiled into a huge book which will feature hundreds of pages of Boners as well as contributions from Chloe Sevigny, Debbie Harry, Fred Armisen, Tim & Eric and many more.

Derrick makes videos for various bands as well as his own movies. His most recent project is called "Cop Movie" and is comprised of about three dozen different cop movies and he also has a workout video coming out that is made up of a million disgusting workout tapes. Gavin does freelance writing for TV, film and magazines and they both do funny acting stuff as well as other hilarious video shit we'll tell you about later. They are both dicks.
