Abstract
Blurred is a comics-collage on hybridization, coldness and passion. The passage between organic and inorganic materials meets the strangeness of different forms which meld in this abstract tale. The short story/collage/drawings in which the main characters experience interspecies relations is based on the assumptions of the object-ontology. It is a visual flirt with the main topic: “Tranimacies.” The collage refers to contemporary artworks concerning hybridization, objectification, transsexualism, postmodernism and anthropomorphism, which are mixed with texts from newspapers, literature and dreams. Images and words are cut and melded to create a new, dangerous world where everything is a bit blurred and a trans-child is fighting for existence.
