Hand-drawn experimental animation.
HD 1920 x 1080 3 mins 36 secs
This short hand-drawn animation was made using graphite and watercolour. In it a landscape is viewed through binocular frames, giving detail but no sense of context. Using a continuous though interrupted motion of vertical, horizontal and diagonal scrolling, the landscape reveals itself in a fragmented way. The viewer's gaze is never allowed to settle for long. A soundtrack of the echoing calls of a raven further adds to the sense of disorientation - in the field, an echo fails to provide cues as to the source of a sound.
