Aestheticization of violence
The aestheticization of violence in high culture art or mass media is the depiction of violence in a manner that is “stylistically excessive in a significant and sustained way” so that audience members are able to connect references from the "play of images and signs” to artworks, genre conventions, cultural symbols, or concepts.
