Flash meets Impressionism
In this flash, we see two gentlemen having light conversation while preparing to eat a large blood red lobster. The gentlemen on the left, appears a bit androgynous, and has only exposed bones where arms should be, rendering him incapable of eating a complicated meal such as lobster. This juxtaposition implies futility, or perhaps symbolizes unattainable, unrealistic goals. The gentleman on the right, much younger is missing the top of his head, exposing a large, plump frankfurt/hotdog thing. The young man appears in flannel and seems to have bad teeth. Occaisonally, we zoom in on his hotdog/brain to see it pulsate gray to red. Does this suggest the young man is thinking about hotdogs even though a lobster is in front of him? Is it a phallic symbol? Watching the flash long enough left me with the impression that the pair may even be homosexual companions.
Because the flash is silent, we are left providing our own words and sound with our imaginations, which the author easily provokes with these unusual images.
So, we have homoeroticism and unattainability. Is this flash a protest against a ban on gay marriage? If nothing else, it may the first of its kind of a new style of art: The Moving Painting. I hope to see more of this type of work.
