A shellfish claw covered in grey bath towels— probably stolen during one of his visits to the Beau Rivage Palace in Lausanne—holds a bunch of seaweed. It’s a rereading of a funeral wreath. They are underwater Armani Chrysanthemum. When you see them, you think of Cosima von Bonin, but you can also slip further away. Perhaps this clip is dedicated to the artistic director Howard Ashman. He was a Broadway man behind the Disney Studios revival in the late 1980s. The creator of the crypto-queer film “The Little Mermaid” and its fantabulous lobster Sebastian, he died of AIDS in 1991 and was relegated to the studio’s dustbin. Soft Heroes are too often forgotten.
