Fans of the egg, rejoice!
Kei's magnificent Egg People represent a new dimension in doll culture.
These shelled creations are truly stunning, and plug a cord directly into our emotions.
Born in Tokyo in '71, Kei began birthing dolls in '95.
This choice Emily Dickinson poem appears on her website:
If I can stop one Heart from breaking
I shall not live in vain
If I can ease one Life the Aching
Or cool one Pain
Or help one fainting Robin
Unto his Nest again
I shall not live in Vain.
Wow, that is unmistakably creepy. Sort of reminds me of something you would see in the pages of Luigi Serafini's 'Codex Seraphinianus'.

This is just scary!
ReplyDeleteI really like reading about movies on your blog, but DUDE! You have way too much free time. Do you have a job, wife, kids, bills?

Jonny -- The Serafini parallel is spot on.

Ninja -- Very scary. Very beautiful.

Anonymous -- I'm a very driven, organized person. I prep three to five blogs a week around 5am or around midnight.
I answer messages like this in moments between other things (such as waiting to meet someone for an 8:30 meeting; it is now 8:28) or waiting for something to digitize or render in an edit suite).
I am a cinematographer, director, and writer.
I'm currently writing a novel, shooting/directing a web series, shooting a reality show, and prepping a feature (THE CLOTH DAGGER) for an early October start.
I have always believed that busy people make time. So much time can be wasted just pondering and procrastinating.
I'm in a real relationship, I have no kids (by choice), and I have bills (who doesn't?)
I usually find an hour a day to walk, too.
If I had kids and a nagging, unreasonable wife, I'm sure I'd have no time for most of the things I enjoy.
That's why I've made the decisions I've made.
I say this with affection- Sometimes the things I find on your blog just blow my fucking mind. thank you for showing me bizarre things I would never have stumbled on by myself.
ReplyDeleteDamn, these egg people are wonderful pieces.
Shon -- Thank you. I'm glad you find reasons to visit here.
ReplyDeleteThe egg people are eggcellent (to paraphrase Vincent Price's 'Egghead' character in the TV Batman).
