Bunny Rogers. Child's Play
Bunny Rogers. Child's Play

Summary/Abstract: The author analyses the work of American poet and visual artist Bunny Rogers, referring to the codes of visual and narrative associations that concern the objectification of children and animals by mass culture. Her point of reference is Sianne Ngai's theory as present in "Our Aesthetic Categories: Zany, Cute, Interesting." Using the concept of cuteness as proposed by Ngai, the author discusses the pictorial and literary representations of maturation, love, alienation, depression and pathos that Rogers creates in her heterogeneous work.
