AN OVERSIMPLIFICATION OF HER BEAUTY

You’ve just arrived home after a bad day. You’re broke and lonely, even though you live in the biggest and busiest city in America. You do, however, have one cause for mild optimism: you seem to have captured the attention of an intriguing young lady. You’ve rushed home to clean your apartment before she comes over. In your haste, you see that you’ve missed a call. There’s a voice mail; she tells you that she won’t be seeing you tonight.
With arresting insight, vulnerability, and a delightful sense of humor, Terence Nance’s explosively creative debut feature, AN OVERSIMPLIFICATION OF HER BEAUTY, documents the relationship between Terence and a lovely young woman (Namik Minter) as it teeters on the divide between platonic and romantic. Utilizing a tapestry of live action and various styles of animation, Terence explores the fantasies, emotions, and memories that race through his mind during a singular moment in time. [via]

Sinceramente, todo projeto de Moda deveria ser mais assim. Ma-ra-vi-lha-da! Ying Gao, minha mais nova designer favoritíssima <3
Inspired by director Jacques Tati’s film of the same title, Playtime lets the viewer reflect on appearances and the perception of objects in space. Compared to haute couture by French writer François Ede, the film presents a world where modern architecture and urban surveillance are overtly present, while using stylistic techniques to fool the viewer, such as trompe l’oeil and mirror effects. Taken into the world of fashion, this critical and playful point of view allows Ying Gao to explore the concept of transformation, like in Walking City and Living Pod. In the context of a fashion show with sounds and lighting, the possibility for the viewer to photograph or shoot the pieces on video is rendered difficult: the dresses will appear blurry in the recorded image. The first dress will appear blurry and the second dress, for example, will react to the flash of the camera, itself becoming a light source when a photo is taken.
Gao’s most recent experiments were inspired by Jacques Tati’s 1967 film “Playtime,” which was itself described by French author François Ede as “haute couture.” The use of optical illusions and mirror effects as a metaphor for urban transparency became the concept for a new group of interactive pieces that transform in reaction to sound and to the surrounding environment, mimicking the often futile attempts to “capture” our presence via surveillance mechanisms. Purposefully elusive and illusionistic, these garments appear playful while taking on the darker subject of surveillance and its relationship to truth.
