In The Face of Another (1966), directed by Hiroshi Teshigahara and adapted from the novel by Kobo Abe, the art direction was overseen by architect Arata Isozaki. In several interior scenes, one can observe the extensive use of prehistoric haniwa clay figures as decorative elements, their presence evoking a sense of mask-like physiognomy. Even more striking is the fact that, in the consultation room of the psychiatric hospital where the doctor—portrayed by Mikijiro Hira—works, a sculpture titled Ear by the artist Tomio Miki is prominently displayed.

Silhouette from the Sado collection by Walter van Beirendonck, made for the Vestirama show, autumn 1982. The collection was very avant-garde and considered shocking by the Belgian press.
