Artificial Paradise

About This Movie

Artificial Paradise is a wild trip, really. The soundtrack by Shinpei Kikuchi has this psychedelic, almost eerie vibe that mixes perfectly with the visuals. You’ve got Tanaami’s prints that play with transparency and light, creating a sense of depth and disorientation. The blend of cheerful beach imagery with a slightly sinister undercurrent is intriguing. It feels like a commentary on escapism, but also on the darker sides of consumer culture. There's an unpredictable pacing that keeps you on your toes, which makes it stand out in the experimental realm of the 70s. It’s definitely a unique piece that sparks conversation.

Artificial Paradise is a bit of a rarity; it often flies under the radar, even among collectors. There’s been limited circulation of its formats, which adds to its allure. The film has garnered interest for its distinctive visual style and the experimental approach taken in the 70s. If you come across it in any format, it’s worth grabbing, as it tends to be a conversation starter within collector circles.
