Coitus Interruptus:

A Dismembered Autobiography

​

3:05

Coitus Interruptus is a cutout animation that I created as a means to explore my identity as a queer male raised in a Catholic family. I hoped to engage with certain anecdotes that are particular to myself but topics that demonstrate violence and oppression that could be widely understood. A combination of rage and longing led to this animation’s creation. Coitus Interruptus works as an interruption of heteronormativity through a call to anger and hope. Handcrafted animation created by Christopher Willauer, 2015
