Educational film discovered in a bin became raw material for On Eye Rape, where a hole-puncher was applied to individual frames in a bold statement against censorship. “The original images are ‘hidden’ by large areas of light appearing so violently that he calls this work On Eye Rape” (Christophe Charles). A pioneering work of junk art and found footage filmmaking from Japan, the film is a unique collaboration with artist Natsuyuki Nakanishi (Hi Red Centre).
