''...a dazzling achievement of music and visuals.''
Turkish artist Murat Sayginer's animated short, The Flying
Fish, is a dazzling achievement of music and visuals. Schematically, the film
is a metaphysical journey of life and death with sleek geometric
representations--from spheres wriggling sperm-like to a neon-drenched
afterlife. Scintillating, metallic textures and imagery abound, juxtaposing the
ancient and pure with slick and occasionally glitchy, computerized sheen.
One of the most compelling images was a skeleton hunched
within the cage of an overturned shopping cart--an obvious metaphor linking
death and consumerism--but the image sticks and is brilliantly evoked in a
desert wasteland of scattered bones. Highlight for me in The Flying Fish was
the "The Safe Zone" which includes pulsating crystal rectangular bars
lit in hyper colors with Sayginer's effective score pumping at shiny synth
heights. Riding off into a neon sunset, it becomes a comforting closer to
Sayginer's dense menagerie.
