4-Ton Mantis

A wonderfully evocative video for "British/Brazilian beat junkie" Amon Tobin's 4-Ton Mantis was directed by Floria Sigismondi. Despite the I(Luv)NY T-shirt and NYC skyline, Annex-dwellers will spot the architecture of Uno Prii and many more in Toronto know the underside of the Gardiner Expressway.

The multi-disciplinary work of Floria Sigismondi encompasses film, video, photography and sculpture. Incorporating early film and painterly aesthetics Floria creates a hyper-surrealism based on the figure, using images derived from hallucinatory dream-states.
