Mata & Eiji's GRAND TOUR

In 2015, Eiji Hase (JP) and Martijn Kluit (NL) went on a journey across Western Japan to talk to artists and people that have a connection to the art world to see how they were shaping the contemporary art world outside the big city. Mata & Eiji's GRAND TOUR is a video document of this trip and has been published on Youtube in seven parts. This project came to be without any funding.

Photo Shooting
This is the opening video of the show. After finishing the photo shoot for the show's poster, Nick decides to try out the air gun used as a prop in the shoot on his partner. When his partner decides its time for payback, he doesn't know that the camera man switched the settings on the gun to machine gun mode.

Yoyogi Survey
Nick's partner Takakuwa is famously still a virgin at age 26. The duo went to Yoyogi Park to ask for advice on how to get him a girlfriend, which people seemed all too willing to give. From his shoes to the size of his tool, everything comes under scrutiny.

The Big Date
Takakuwa listens to the advice given to him by the friendly people of Yoyogi and gets a make-over. Nick helps him get ready for his big surprise date in Harajuku. The biggest surprise of the suprise date is that the date is Nick in a whig.

Popcorn Eating Contest/Tough Guy Shots
Nick and Takakuwa decide to hold a popcorn eating contest to see which of them can finish a bucket of popcorn quicker. When nothing interesting happens, they decide to try them some tough guy shots instead; sniff salt through the nose, drink tequila and squirt lime in the eyes.

Japanese Cuisine Tour
Nick fools Takakuwa into thinking he is going to try to upset a western stranger by promising them a free guide to Japanese Cuisine and then taking him or her to a McDonnalds instead. Takakuwa doesn't know that the stranger is actually a friend who Nick instructed to get upset and push him around in order to scare Takakuwa.
