Ashley Crawford investigates how such figures as Ben Marcus,
Matthew Barney, and David Lynch-among other artists, novelists, and
film directors-utilize religious themes and images via
Christianity, Judaism, and Mormonism to form essentially mutated
variations of mainstream belief systems. He seeks to determine what
drives contemporary artists to deliver implicitly religious imagery
within a 'secular' context. Particularly, how religious heritage
and language, and the mutations within those, have impacted
American culture to partake in an aesthetic of apocalyptism that
underwrites it.
