I had the honor of grading this piece with a dream team of creatives - that all skateboard! Words from the insanely talented
@mandibleclaw below:
“This is a very special one. I had the chance to make an art film for Meta to be screened at an event in Cannes, about the inherent artistic nature of skateboarding.
Instead of making a doc/narrative-based piece, in which we were supposed to meet various skate artists working in different media — I decided to just SHOW skaters’ art, OF skating. And from there, I could think of one skater whose skating truly and solely is his art form: Daewon Song. So the idea was simple: create a continuous, flowing, endless line of Daewon skating his favorite canvas—a mini ramp-and then curate a group of skater artists from all different visual media, to interpret his line in their own style. So that Daewon’s line flows from one visual universe to the next.
But not only the artists were skaters; almost all of the film crew and post production members skated too!”
