I'd crave for Tori Amos. She's a piano goddess, totally creative visually, and plus, her hair is ORANGE! hehe It has been since my childhood from her earthquakes era in 1992-1993, that I've been indulged by videos of her. Her true affinity music(d-Uh, ofcourse), AND visual has always been embedded in her video works. A great sense of cinematography and yet, rich of imaginative visuals and imagery has ALWAYS been something that I'd covet for from them. So, despite you might find it hard to 'listen' to her music, watching the video might oh, SO WOULD enhance the experience, greatly. I'd say. =D



Anyway, I bought a new video compilation of her : Fade to Red. AAANNNDDD....watching her new video Sleeps With Butterflies--a song that has always been a permanent resident of my playlist ;p, I knew I was looking for somebody else's work. I knew I had seen the image elsewhere before...hmm...I have huge collection of images and illustrations over the internet, and I KNEW it was one of'em. And there it was,Aya Kato.

I had few illustrations of her in my collection, but then after I watched the video I was becoming more and more curious. She's a freelance illustrator from Japan, born in 1982, her talent and originality...is unmistakable. Having Find more bout her here. I'd always love her work!Uadhh....*as if my body would turn to water, seing her work :p*

In the video she works with laurent briet, which equally genius as to transform the surreal illustration into realistic video imagery, with Tori amos in each slides of it. Uuhh...wuff wuff..awk!
