Girls will be boys. The Kingpins take the rap.

The Museum of Contemporary Art In Sydney. My boy was dragging his heels around the place. Until he walked into "Welcome to the Jingle" , a truly explosive video installation by The Kingpins.

"Coming out of Sydney’s drag scene, the female foursome utilize an aesthetics of remixing, with elements taken from mainstream media, pop culture and art history, to comment on issues of gender, sex, public space, consumerism and corporate branding. Their performances play with music, video and costume, and are presented as public interventions, sometimes in the form of ‘surprise’ actions, as well as gallery installations with posters, projections and soundtracks. Humorous, spectacular, grotesque and colourful, their work engages the audience in a subversive politics of pleasure. " (adapted from the Kingpins' website)

Subversive it was. Entertaining as well. Like bizar track-suited warriors, the Kingpins run the rat race of the CBD, fuelled by the city symphony of car-alarms, peak-hour traffic and the lunch-time crush. As they run their Starbucks Marathon, the words from Grandmaster Flash's rap song can be heard in the distance "It's like a jungle / sometimes it makes me wonder / how I keep from going under."

Now that strikes a chord.
