I'm very inspired by cremaster
films directed by Matthew Barney. He has described the Cremaster cycle (1994–2002) as "a self-enclosed aesthetic system consisting of five films that explore processes of creation." The cycle includes the films as well as photographs, drawings, sculptures, and installations the artist produced in conjunction with each episode. The title of the films refers to the muscle that raises and lowers the male reproductive system according to temperature, external stimulation, or fear. The films themselves are a grand mixture of history, autobiography, and mythology, an intensely private universe in which symbols and images are densely layered and interconnected. The resulting cosmology is both beautiful and complex.

the aesthetics are very inspiring.
