Dr. Giggles
Institute of Contemporary Arts
Dr. Giggles, dir. Manny Coto, USA 1992, 96 min, English, 18


An asylum escapee who believes he's a doctor comes to the town where his mass-murderer father was killed and soon starts on a spree of his own. 

"As you see the sculptures in Under Construction are made with skeleton simulations, I was playing with the fake bones. When I drill on the bones to make a hole so it can be assembled with other materials fastened by bolts and nuts, I feel like I am like Dr. Giggles who seems to treat human bodies like his toy, using scary tools.”
