Commodity Fetish

Why do birds suddenly appear every time you are near? Just like me, they long to be close to you…

A video art short created by live dubbing HD footage onto VHS tape.

Commodity Fetish explores the relationship between consumer and product by putting it into a lustful context. Money, alcohol, plastic ponies and anime girls are juxtaposed over music by the Carpenters.

Screened during Get On the Boat: A Buran Retrospective at Exit Art.
