Rinpa Eshidan - "Cube"
Fascinating, really cool stuff here. Latest video from Rinpa Eshidan, a Japanese artist collective. The video pretty much speaks for itself, but suffice to say their philosophy is powerful and inspiring. It highlights the temporary nature of art and to a smaller degree existence, in that nothing they create is permanent. Therefore their work retains an extremely organic characteristic, as they are constantly re-inventing and tweaking their imagery. Vaguely reminds me of the Tibetan monk practice of carefully assembling a meticulously constructed mandala made of sand particles, only to sweep it all away upon completion.
This "Cube" video was my favorite, but they have a bunch more on their YouTube channel, check em out. It looks like they are selling a compilation DVD, I bet it's pretty sweet if you wanna support them...
