The video shows two automata figures. The first figure depicts a seated Vincent van Gogh holding a sunflower. The figure has articulated limbs and the platform it sits on has a hand crank on the side. When cranked, Van Gogh's arms move up and down and the sunflower bobbles. The second figure is a stylized depiction of Edvard Munch's "The Scream". The figure is seated on a similar platform and when cranked, the figure moves its hands up to its face in the iconic scream pose. The background for the figures includes artwork that seems inspired by the paintings they represent.
