I am not a video artist.
Adding movement to a visual composition increases the complexity of the resulting choices.
Animations also allow more space to play with combining images and text.
For awhile in art school, I enjoyed simultaneously approaching a work from both the mediums of painting and of animation.
First thoughts on this work were about how movies are an illusion created by a combination of still images. I wanted to take the illusion apart and work with the pieces.
