Our annual survey of abstract and experimental animation. Animators working in this field employ every technique from hand-drawn ‘musical scores’ all the way across the scale to high definition, computer assisted image-making. These 14 short films share a pure love of animated movement and an artist’s eye for filling the screen, harnessing colour and creating non-narrative imagery.
Recommended age 15+
Developed from research into early Japanese autopsies, particularly the striking water colours of Aoki Shukuya. The abstract, celebratory depiction of the human figure and its place within physical space forms the basis of this animation.
