Encyclopedia Pictura vs Kodama and Takeno.

30 Mar 2007

This morning, I checked Fecal Face and saw a link to this music video by Encyclopedia Pictura for the band Seventeen Evergreen.
Oh surprise when, at about half of the video, all this jelly-fleshy pink turned into shiny spikes! Which then reminded me of Sachiko Kodama & Minako Takeno’s piece “Protrude, Flow” I saw at TELIC few weeks ago.
I guess this all this separated at birth thing always depends on what you saw first. I don’t simply imply that one artist “copied” the other one, yet, I fancy similarities in aesthetics. I like to think that similar rhetoric can take place at the same given time.
