Disenchanted Disney

Today we present you with works from José Rodolfo Loaiza Ontiveros’ project, Disenchanted. The Mexican artist takes familiar and iconic Disney characters out of their fairy tale existence and puts them into the stark reality of life embodied by perversion, voyeurism and addiction, evolving into the more complicated topics of homosexuality, rape and even faith. It’s half tribute and half social criticism. It’s a re-contextualized artistic proposal on the strength of time-honored iconoclasm and the weakness of haphazard ideology.

More after the jump.
