Project description
Rebels Rise, Ridicule Reigns, Power Cries - As Carnival Flames explores different forms of resistance and resilience through Mikhail Bakhtin’s concept of the carnivalesque. It examines how humour, irony, grotesque imagery, and absurdity become tools to challenge hierarchical structures and oppressive power dynamics, ranging from figures of authority to political systems, from everyday social norms to global corporate control.
