On the point of vanishing

by Jen Corbett

"Vanishing Point" is a bite sized piece of visual performance art by Japanese group Bonsajo. I'm really struck by the way it's exploration of geometric forms smashing together and ripping apart engages you so intensly. How amazing it would be to see this on a big screen, projection or on the side of a building even. The way the shapes morph and move across each frame is brilliant and enchanting. 

The screen format too, is really intresting. A square...just completes it. It really is an amazing work full of rhythm... repetition and variation. Something to watch over, and over, and over again. they've got the tone just right with this one. Bliss.

I really like this. There's a subtext to it, that your mind jumps to... it tells a story in just one image. And it completes it by selling a little camera with bloody good smile recognition technology..
