Henson explores existentialism, psychology, as well as social roles and alienation… an interesting “experiment” to say the least.
Over Time
Ok, it's disturbing, yes, but it's also beautiful, so watch it all the way through. Those eyeless kermies spook me out on the same deep-seated level as my fear of clowns! (via Mostly Muppet Dot Com)
