‘Comic and cartoon violence accustoms us to the viewing years ahead. Away from the fictions of animated slap-stick to the equally absurd legislated violence that post-colonial states sanction and economically encourage. The reactions through the familiarity of semi-incomprehension are even the same. A wallpaper of everyday death a step removed by geography, language, religion, infrastructures and skin. The ‘Other’, as with Wile E Coyote’s landscape, is foreign, physically and mentally removed, allowing the blood, as Godard said, to simply be ’Red’.’ - Ross Downes
