Feltus The Great

creative whirlwind of nonsense topped with strawberries and whipped cream

About Me

It has been said that Tobias Feltus “breathed the air of the Italian renaissance throughout his childhood”, born accidentally under the same roof as partner in business and art, dear brother Josef, in “an affectionate nest animated by the haphazard air of art”. Perhaps this explains why his art has been described as “post-neo-classical-divisionism”. Indeed. Together the brothers overcome their differences and inability to communicate (unless it be telepathically or through ethernet cable), to unleash to the universe the creative force that is FeltusFeltus. The self-professed designer, photographer, producer, taxidermist, lover of heilan coos, collector of bizarre antique medical implements describes himself as a “creative whirlwind of nonsense topped with strawberries and whipped cream” and often wonders whether the meaning of life is “to procreate (or pretend to do such, thanks to modern contraceptives)”… ladies beware. To be snapped by the artist formerly known to resemble Prince, is indeed a rare and exquisite experience, known only to the rich, famous and z-list. If the photographer requests to take you for a shoot, apparel-deficient, into a dark forest in the middle of nowhere, it really is going to be OK. Did I mention orange? Did I mention boobies? Furry muff. Just don’t call him Toby… (thelaureltree)

Conscious Life is my new film. It is the video to accompany the second single from Aereogramme's acclaimed album 'My Heart Has A Wish That You Would Not Go' (Chemikal Underground Records). Written by Ruth Moore, directed, produced, photography, mise-en-scene and montage by Tobias Feltus at the FeltusFeltus studios.

REVIEW:
Tobias Feltus's "Conscious Life" is a near-perfect example of the symbiosis between picture and sound that is only possible within these two forms. [...] Aereogramme's music contains words, but they aren't directly spoken by any of the characters in "Conscious Life." Rather they serve as our guide through the psychology and context behind the happenings on screen. read on...

I also recently worked on the (below) video for Sister Vanilla with Polite, for Chemikal Underground. My contribution are the extremely accelerated sequences, including the rolling of a cigarette... shot as individual frames in a "pixelation".
