Untitled Barrier
3D Animation / Video - Single Channel
This animation, created in the 3D modeling software Blender, is a kind of dream place, inspired by my nostalgia for the aesthetics of Chris Van Allsburg, specifically his graphite rendering of light and how the raytracing light algorithms in Blender echo this lucid dreamy vibe. It’s an imagination of a dimension, created as I taught myself 3D modeling and crafted to exhibit at Currents New Media, in Santa Fe. Drawing from energies of flow and water, depicting images of rolling dunescapes that live in my dreams from childhoods at the beach. These dreamy spaces contrast an awakening human form, exploring rolling forms of noise through glitching the software and using digital techniques in unintended ways.
“There is a place that has emerged, a window opened that we've stepped through. Within it, consciousness is developing as a form of wildlife, a breeze rippling across the emerging landscape. Welcome to UNTITLED BARRIER”
Untitled Barrier was exhibited as part of Currents New Media 2018
