Prism Season

After some searching I finally found a seller on Rakuten who was able to provide me this art piece.

If you're familiar with or a fan of Moe Nagata and her art I'd say this film is something that you should experience, the motifs and the atmosphere of the film are what you'd expect from an artist like Moe Nagata and her personal touch adds another layer of comfort to the experience that is this film. The film also features a representation many of her famous and signature paintings, in an animated format.

The film takes you through the seasons, Summer, Spring, Fall and Winter. The journey ... is portrayed in visually abstract manner utilizing many of the motifs familiar from her other works, including wings, flowers and legendary creatures. This approach allows the viewer to relate to the mindset of the portrayed subject. The presentation also approaches the portrayal of the subject through a dreamscape like setting with an emphasis on the imaginationary visual aspects and legendary creatures. The presentation is character focused mainly and supplementary elements providing the fantastical aspect of the visuals. The art also uses repetition and multilayered visual gimmicks to enhance the immersion to the presented setting.

Visually the film provides and experience where you can return to your childhood and experience the emotion through the vibrant visual atmosphere constantly present on the film. I'd say the different seasons can be seen as metaphors for passing time and growing up, experiencing emotional and physical growth throughout the years. Many of the motifs of the film portraying different emotional aspects of human nature, the film provides an interesting perspective connecting all of these elements into an abstract visual structure. The seasons can also be seen through the lens of the motifs present in many of her paintings featured in the film. This adds another layer on how the abstract narrative comes together through not only the visual presentation by itself but by connecting these famous paintings featured in the film to the abstract narrative.

The music is constant and provides a soothing supplement to the visual aspect of the film, which enhances the comforting and childlike atmosphere adding to the already strong visual presence of Moe Nagata and her art. The music also matches the flow of the film and the narrative through the seasons with changing tracks, however it is pretty impressive that even if the track changes it doesnt change or affect the overall flow of the series.

Due to the excellent management of the flow of the visual and audio elements and weaving them together engagement to the film stays relatively high throughout the runtime. This makes the experience at the end feel more whole and as such I was able to enjoy the complete audiovisual experience. Overall if you're looking for an artistic atmosphere with abstract visual approach to the themes of growth youth and the emotional aspect of experiencing growing up, this is the film you're looking for.

This is a youthful approach and has strong artistic audiovisual presence as you'd expect from a professional like Moe Nagata.
