Artist's corner with Bijou Karman - AdolescentTV
Channel: AdolescentTV
Date: 2018-08-01

Bijou Karman always knew she was destined for an artistic career: "In high school I did as little math and science as possible and took all art classes as much as I could." Luckily for her, that gamble paid off--and now she's telling our own Matthew Kaundart all about it for the first installment of his new artist-focused video series, Amadeus in the Studio.

Bijou's art is very fashion-focused, pulling much of her inspiration from the fashion magazines she's been reading since she was a kid. Her notebooks are chock full of fashion drawings, magazine-page collages, and intricate illustrations of public figures like whimsical singer-songwriter Kate Bush. Her closet, in turn, looks like something from out of a picture book: we're talking bold colors and big, graphic patterns that would make a cartoon character squeal with joy.

In a universe inhabited by those who are trying to force-fabricate video material that “speaks” to youth culture, ADOLESCENT blasts through the galaxy in a spaceship full of young directors (13 – 25 years old), on the fuel of their exuberance, energized by the great-bang stardust of their determination. Free of encumbrances such as cynicism or rules. Our pack of savant directors, (filmmakers, photographers, illustrators and visual effects wunderkinds) collectively create magic. Pursuing excellence, innovation and the occasional intake of astronaut freeze dried ice cream.
