Crush and REM Strike Again


After their first well received collaboration with REM (Hollow Man), Crush follows up with “Man Sized Wreath.” This piece deals with an anonymous man’s daily routine and shows us how lost and alienated we can become in our visually saturated and over-stimulating environment.

“[As Hollow Man] was intended as a statement about isolation, the fear of losing who we are. This film is a more pointed statement about the state of the world politically, and the idea that we are all hypnotized by so much meaningless diversion we don’t focus on things that matter.”
