An important issue in discussing trends of contemporary art concerns the intermingling of genre, production formats and geography. Adding to this is the innovations in digital technologies. All of these fuel the ever more complex nature of contemporary art where heterogeneous senses mix together and creative arts diversify. As a natural outcome of these trends, hybrid genres-unclassifiable in existing genre categories-emerge. This article examines this emergent trend in contemporary art using the works of Matthew Barney that seek a new genre by combining plastic art and cinema. The series is an experimental attempt in which sculpture and cinema, two languages in visual domain. The series develops this approach even further by including narratives into a visual art form where painting, sculpture, installation arts mingle in tandem. These attempts of hybridity places on the forefront a new post-humanistic understanding of human beings that have been lurked in the background. Instead of simply being 'contents as results of a finished work', these illustrations are a result of continuous inquiry of self-identity that began from 'creative stages as processes'; that is, a result of investigations of human beings in hyper-realistic world. The intermingling of genres require, as a collateral, investigations and understanding of genres at their core. In the case of Matthew Barneys works, they exemplify the revolving loop of creation and redemption(or restraints) that progresses in the not yet finished completed works, 'termination at the state that has not reached the final production stage.' The structure of this new language-that encourages hybrid of genres-is now tiptoeing into a yet uncharted territory of post-humanism.
