What is Shock Art?
Shock Art is an art movement that uses disturbing images, scents, or sounds to provoke a strong, often shocked, reaction from viewers. It is often regarded as a form of social commentary, with critics and supporters debating whether its impact is positive or negative. Shock Art frequently employs taboo, obscene, or outrageous elements to challenge societal norms and provoke critical thought.
