Diabolic Wife

by Simi Nallaseth

🏆 Honorary Mention · Prix Ars Electronica 1991

Simi Nallaseth's “Diabolic Wife” was honoured with a Honorary Mention at the Prix Ars Electronica 1991, category Computer Animation.

“'Diabolic Wife' is a satirical poem about male dominance. Compelled by his lust for a woman, a devil creates a fragmented wife by juxtaposing various parts of animals on her, oblivious to all but his own carnal needs. The devil symbolizes a typical male chauvinistic pig.
