Mariko Mori


Q: Mariko Mori in the series Pureland or Burning Desire explores a Relationship with Japanese popular culture, Elaborate on the use of parody by the artist.

I personally think the use of parody in this series is hilarious.  It's going on how much american culture has taken a huge liking to Japanese pop culture, and how silly a lot of characters from japanese pop culture are if they were "real".  Because anime is what, from my experience, most american kids are into, there aren't any real people.  There aren't any real actors to like on facebook.  This series I think is making a point of how silly things would look in real life.  I might be wrong.
