Artist History
The Female Anchor of Sade is the raging Sus Scrofa of London, bursting through the thin paper walls of conservative "modern" art. The Sus Scrofa is the post-industrial reincarnation of Särimner, the immortal pig of Valhalla. It's fur is brown shifting in gray and black. It battles the offspring of the CECA, the modern interpretation of Machiavelli's Prince with great courage. Through the dark cloaks of London it arrived in the very north of Sweden to insure the passions of the have-nots, the Kronstadt sailors, the workers and the death of the privilege in everyday culture. Realizing that culture is the most subtle commodity, the one that helps sell all the others. Very much alike a super hero from a comic book the Sus Scrofa, the filthy pig, continues its everlasting battle. A battle against beauty, not just old notions of it, but against the concept as such. Against art (including music) as belonging to a dimension parallel to the one we experience everyday. In favor of human creativity, but highly suspicious towards its abstract expression modes in contemporary society. In favor of human passion. Against the bullshit making- a- song- so- that- we- can- make- a- record- so -that- we- can- tour attitude, even how do-it-yourself it is, since it's the most depraved routine, an insult toward the intelligence and taste of the public and a waste of life of those that actually think that kids in bands want to express something. Against the banal. Against the common sense. In favor of militant expressions of love, such as riots. Against songs, pictures, paintings and other works of art, since those objects keeps the creator a prisoner to a time that have passed, expressing a feeling that have been felt. The making (and consuming) of those objects involve a projecting of subjectivity and consequently an objectification of the human being. The work of art is in this sense very much as a god. The Sus Scrofa is an aggressive non-believer. Against the professional, among other things because the artist, poet, punkrock band etc. making a living out of their shit preserve kids' notions of the glamorous wage-labor, the professionals being directly counter-revolutionary in this sense, even how radical their official political stance is. Against the notion of social-realism as the proletarian art (fucking Stalinism). Against entertainment, as it retains the division between performer and audience, and consequently alienation. Against subculture. Descended from the filth the Sus Scrofa doesn't fear dirt, but still, doesn't embrace it. In strong opposition toward the romantisation of being a victim it isn't particularly fond of ragged clothes, dirty socks or mndless drug use. Instead it advocates the building of a mass movement to overthrow the contemporary modes of production, since social revolution is the only way to liberate creativity entirely.
