I encountered one of these videos a few months back and never got around to posting it. Today I found another one on Neat-O-Rama with a link to the group’s website. Here’s what they have to say about who they are and what they are about:
“Rinpa” is a word created by the founders of the group meaning “to bring people together, while “Eshidan” essentially means “art crew.” The Rinpa Eshidan is a team of artists brought together by a common creative expression.
Led by Noiz-Davi (Yoshiaki Kusunoki) and Daisuke Yamamoto, the group’s main activities are performing in live painting events and creating videos of art in action. Instead of focusing on the finished project, we believe the process of creation itself is where art comes to life and our videos aim to engage our audience in that process.
The videos are endless fun, and the soundtracks are a perfect match. Here are a few of my favs:
