Extrapolate
Synopsis
In this hand drawn animation a line is being extrapolated through a grid. When the line surpasses the boundaries of the grid, the process spreads to and reflects on its surroundings. Beyond each boundary the extrapolation of movement is causing deformation in a systematic but speculative way. This work was created with support from “Animation Artist in Residence Tokyo 2016″ part of the Agency for Cultural Affairs, Government of Japan (Bunka-cho) “Project to invite overseas creators of media arts 2016” and the Mondriaan Fund.
