Title of Project

what god inflicts on everybody else he inflicts on god

Project Description

Both a universal social abstraction as well as a represented entity, God is the recipient of postures of supplication, of prayer, of sacrifice to His demands––eroticized gestures revealing that there is no big Other: symbolic authority is itself split, contradictory, or it wouldn’t need relationality.
