Thus Spoke Cornholio

Olev Kuma

ENG EST

Olev Kuma (b 1990) is an Estonian artist. He graduated from the Estonian Academy of Arts, majoring in painting and graphic design. This work depicts the characters of the animated TV series Beavis and Butt-Head. Holy Cornholio was the sixth episode of the eighth season. After injuring himself, Beavis took too many painkillers at the hospital, resulting in his alter ego, Cornholio. Since he had injured both of his hands, the sect members in the hospital thought that he was their new messiah. All in all, in the crazy world of Pop art, one can take on different roles and use different points of view to interpret this world.
Olev Kuma (s 1990) on Eesti kunstnik. Ta on lõpetanud Eesti Kunstiakadeemia maalikunsti ja graafilise disaini eriala. Antud teos kujutab animeeritud telesarja “Beavis and Butt-Head”  tegelasi. "Holy Cornholio" oli kaheksanda hooaja kuues osa. Pärast enese vigastamist võttis Beavis haiglas korraga liiga palju valuvaigisteid ning selle tagajärjel tuli välja tema alter ego Cornholio. Kuna ta oli vigastanud oma mõlemat kätt, arvasid haiglas viibivad sekti liikmed, et tegemist oma uue messiasega. Kokkuvõttes võib pöörases popkunsti maailmas võtta erinevaid rolle ning kasutada mitmesuguseid vaatepunkte selle maailma tõlgendamiseks.
