No Nose Knows (film still) Mika RottenburgSeen in Glasgow International Arts Festival 2016In the film component of No Nose Knows, the main character—a 6’5’’ blond Amazonian woman—Bunny Glamazon, is seen riding a mobility scooter through empty housing developments in what appears to be a dense, yet empty, concrete Chinese landscape. She enters one of the buildings, walking through a variety of rooms and hallways, some occupied by large bubbles emanating various sound frequencies and howls. Bunny then enters her ‘office’ and begins ‘working’—here consisting of the self-induction to an allergic reaction causing her ‘Pinocchio’ nose to inflate and grow; her supervision of the pearl making process, from the seeding of the mussels to the cracking of the shells, to the sorting of the finished pearls; watering the feet sticking out from the floor below her, while sneezing various noodle dishes such as Spaghetti al Pesto or Chou-Mein; and eventually popping the enigmatic bubbles at the day’s end. -- source link
