Batman, big shot, when you gave the order
to grow up, then let me loose to wander
leeward, freely through the wild blue yonder
as you liked to say, or ditched me, rather,
in the gutter ... well, I turned the corner.
Now I’ve scotched that ‘he was like a father
to me’ rumour, sacked it, blown the cover
on that ‘he was like an elder brother’
story, let the cat out on that caper
with the married woman, how you took her
downtown on expenses in the motor.
Holy robin-redbreast-nest-egg-shocker!
Holy roll-me-over-in the-clover,
I’m not playing ball boy any longer
Batman, now I’ve doffed that off-the-shoulder
Sherwood-Forest-green and scarlet number
for a pair of jeans and crew-neck jumper;
now I’m taller, harder, stronger, older.
Batman, it makes a marvellous picture:
you without a shadow, stewing over
chicken giblets in the pressure cooker,
next to nothing in the walk-in larder,
punching the palm of your hand all winter,
you baby, now I’m the real boy wonder.

“The Staged Self… Kim is interested in this performative translation of biography: the way Barney mediates intimacy, publicity, and social critique through the body as both medium and material of artistic self-negotiation. Yet the two artists differ in how they mobilize embodiment in relation to personal and social power. For Barney, the body functions as a performative tool and mythological material; for Kim, it becomes a site through which to examine identity, hybridity, and digital self-representation. In both practices, the corporeal is an epistemic instrument. Both artists transform fashion’s regimes of the gaze, surface aesthetics, repetition, staging, and brand identity into conceptual image critique.
Yet unlike Barney, who constructs monumental, iconic, and highly stylized visual worlds— inserting himself into his tableaux with near-editorial precision and incorporating fashion aesthetics into mythological systems—Kim deconstructs the perfect image those codes demand, foregrounding the tension betw](https://s9.imginn.com/846467406_18636358282036781_5285626805874546479_n.jpg?t51.82787-15/846467406_18636358282036781_5285626805874546479_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_e35_p1179x1179_tt6&_nc_cat=100&ig_cache_key=NDAwNzYyMDk4ODM3MDMxNjA1MA%3D%3D.3-ccb7-5&ccb=7-5&_nc_sid=58cdad&efg=eyJ2ZW5jb2RlX3RhZyI6IkNBUk9VU0VMX0lURU0ueHBpZHMuMzI2MC5zZHIucmVndWxhcl9waG90by5DMyJ9&_nc_ohc=EvyPTHGo8PEQ7kNvwG1nTqY&_nc_oc=AdrN93avKU1Al1bASZUzBIgjdwH79mayCCK0bwjfs8Rnm5z0Lm636-ARFWagKcGsQtjsJfqDjo2H-g-xLKw9OvQS&_nc_zt=23&_nc_ht=scontent-atl3-1.cdninstagram.com&_nc_gid=NnByH9hzc4QvPo1vTVtUkw&_nc_ss=70289&oh=00_AQORAm-6ONkW4_Nao5LtUy-WM5nu08HfdE8BUXING1HYGw&oe=6AD9CE43)
