The moving images create a contrast to the static appearance and so bring spatial elements dynamically out.
This stop motion short is part of the diploma thesis of Tomislav Topic, which also included a complete documentation of the project in form of a book, promotional material and a website. Due to the unique properties of working with colors and objects, the film premiere was held on location, so it effectively had the character of an exhibition at the same time. The goal of the project was to lend surreal graphics a truthfulness of sorts by capturing handmade processes in motion, breathing life into colors and animating actual objects without the use of VFX.
