Anapoda

Description: This is quite a different type of animation, one which I could only describe as a morphing painted animation. Although quite chaotic in pace and confusing at times, the animation is a tiny masterpiece in terms of artistic value, and quite a treat for the opera lovers, featuring a beautiful soundtrack, The Damnation of Faust - Scene XVIII, performed by the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Even though it begins close up with a horse riding scene, the camera slowly moves away to reveal that the whole composition is actually a single moving painting that the camera pans around in a spiraling motion. As the action unfolds, it presents a conceptual exploration of the world and humanity itself, with the recurring motif of the horse riders. Although not accessible to any viewer and more less so to those with little patience and tired eyes, this piece of art is well worth watching.
