VIDEO CAPITALISM FOR KIDS
31 October 2019, Pepino
My 14-year old daughter got her first paid job. Galerie Forsblom, which represents me in Helsinki, hired her to direct a short promotional film of my show Animal Show Business. Last summer she did a similar video of my book The Best of All Possible Worlds, the gallery staff liked it and asked her to work for them. It’s a dichotomic feeling, I’m proud of her talent and enthusiasm but on the other hand I hate the idea of my kid submerging in the capitalism and putting a price for her activities. However, it’s great to work with her and see her acting like a bosslady telling me what to do. You’ll see the results in February!
