Patrick Boehmcke

I’ve long had an antagonistic relationship with popular culture and mass media. The character-driven short-form videos I produce often imitate popular media both aesthetically and formally, sometimes to the point of outright parody. The characters in my videos often embody unpopular attitudes and lifestyles. They are the unpopular trapped within and subject to the whims of an uncaring Pop-scene. Bizarre behaviors and brazen lack of taste make them the subjects of spectacle, but a sincere longing for something more is the thread that ties them to me.

Patrick Boehmcke (b. 1993 Philadelphia, PA) is a writer, filmmaker, and visual artist. Using video as his primary tool, his work spans a variety of forms and genres including poetry, documentary, comedic skits, and sci-fi/horror narratives. His work largely focuses on the alienation, oddity, and yearning of suburban American living.
