Vanish

The experimental short film ‘VANISH’ is a mesmerizing journey through surreal landscapes in complete interconnection with the music.
It is an audiovisual collaboration with the visual artist Daniel Schwarz, produced by FABRICA.

Winning video at Shift’s DOTMOV Festival 2012.
3rd place at the Visual Music Award.
Veneto Award, Lago Film Fest

Both music and video have been created parallel and influenced each other. The main direction was defined by choosing mundane objects around the artists’ environment in order to build models and record visuals as well as sounds from them.
Combining ice, porcelain, wood, metal and balsamic vinegar led to this unique mixture of artificial and natural landscapes that act as the projection surface for the visuals but also as sound material.
“‘Vanish’ is a work which make you feel like you’re watching a digital fine art at a museum. Although the music is a little too solemn, there is a consistent line such as the flow line of the light, the camera works, reflection to the surface of the water in the construction of the whole concept, suggests the author’s sense of balance.
It is simple, but uplifting. We can see the beauty no matter how many times we look at it.” – Selected and commented by Kenta Torimoto for Shift’s DOTMOV Festival 2012.
