A lot of students thought our studio had one of the best presentations of all the studios, a nice break of the usual white cube presentations, so to say. :)

I’m excited about the exhibition, but it also feels a little sad because it will be the very last thing I’m doing together with my Czech classmates. In three weeks I will be going home again ...

But about the new assignments. One was really short-term and in fact I finished it just last week, it’s the video up there. We had only two weeks to work on it: a short animation max 30 seconds somehow connected to Ústí and Labem, a Czech town near the German border which has changed sides frequently through history. I made a kind of abstraction of that history. Fun about this is that it’s gonna be projected in three different rooms in a gallery in Ústí, which is why there are these rectangles overlays in the animation. The viewer will only see one of the three parts at any time. :D
