Two By Ken Camp: Mantra

Kenny Martinez is a Los Angeles-based conceptual artist who decides to set up a confessional telephone answering machine as part of his latest project. As the constant deluge of traumatic and obscene voicemails threatens to create a rift in Kenny’s relationship with his girlfriend, Jill, a bizarre serial killer begins using the hotline to menace the couple.

Inspired by artist Allan Bridge’s Apology Line project, Ken Camp’s Mantra is a queer shot-on-video “sexual thriller” that’s as shockingly outrageous as it is lyrically erotic.
