I've been having some rough days lately so if something makes me laugh, I'm pretty impressed. I ran across the work of Brooklyn artist, William Lamson the other day. Someone mentioned his video art piece "Think Globally, Act Locally" in a blog. Imagine a man wearing a mask made of protruding bananas, each with a firecracker sticking out of it. Then imagine that this man has a lighter... Bang. That one just plain weirded me out.
What made me chuckle was "Vital Capacity". The look on this guy's face as he tries to blow balloons away from his pin-covered head piece. Maybe later I'll try to contemplate the meaning.
