The frames of the video fly by as swiftly and lightly as the origamis on the model's face. The movie DAKO follows the same floating rhythm as a.KNACKFUSS' collection; It takes us through the initial inspiring dream, that of the young Japanese girl who walks out of reality and buries herself inside her thousand origamis. The video cleverly makes every garment look aerial, as well as the pace of the model, as if she were walking on a cloud. There is a subtle marriage of awe and humour in both the textile and the digital creation.
