Abstract

The movie, X-men, develops the narrative with metamorphosis as the main motif making visual effects of characters and background. The objective of this study is to suggest that the metamorphosis motif can be materialized based on the virtuality of "pataphysics" as one of the genre characteristics of superhero movies and the newly materialized virtuality can be aesthetic characteristics of metamorphosis motif movies. With the virtuality that has its own characteristics with metaphorical symbols such as satire on an absurd society out of existing traditions, pataphysics started in mid-twentieth century and has had an impact on art movements of dadaism, surrealism, pop art, and postmodernism. Analyzing the characteristics of pataphysics which were shown in these artworks, we applied it to metamorphosis scenes of the movie. As a result, we found out that it visualized the shape and aspect of inner and outer strength of a superhero with aesthetic characteristics of metamorphosis scenes and it realized the presence, hybridity, and ex-formal properties of pataphysics consisting of overlapped virtual and physical reality, with technical virtuality.

영화 'X-men'은 변신(metamorphosis)을 주요 모티브로 등장인물과 배경의 시각효과를 만들어 내며 내러티브를 이끌어간다. 본 연구의 목적은 변신모티브가 슈퍼히어로 영화의 장르적 특징 중 하나로 '파타피직스(pataphysics)'의 가상성을 기반으로 구현되며, 재현된 새로운 가상성은 변신모티브 영화의 미학적 특성이 될 수 있음을 제시하고자 한다. 파타피직스는 20세기 중반 유럽에서 시작되어 기존의 전통에서 탈피한 부조리와 사회에 대한 풍자 등의 파타포의 은유적 상징에 의한 고유의 특성을 가진 가상성으로 다다이즘과 초현실주의, 팝아트, 포스트모더니즘으로 이어지는 예술운동에 큰 영향을 주었다. 이러한 예술 장르의 작품에 나타난 파타피직스의 특성을 분석하고 이를 토대로 영화에 나타난 변신장면에 적용하였다. 그 결과, 영화에 나타난 변신장면의 미학적 특성으로 슈퍼히어로의 외형과 내적인 힘의 양태를 시각화하며, 또한 기술적 가상성과 더불어 가상과 현실의 중첩으로 이루어진 파타피직스의 현전성, 혼종성, 탈정형성의 재현함을 고찰하였다.
