Traffic, digital stills animation, 5min., 2009 |
|
This animation has a bit of a silly idea. While being in traffic or walking along it I usually look a little more at vehicles, which are a different shape than your average car. Subsequently this animation aims to focus on non-private vehicles. The idea was to have them merge into one another. The White Van turns into the big lorry, which transforms into the public bus, a taxi, a pick-up van, etc. It is about the constant flow of traffic, may it be depressing and mesmerizing at the same time. My digital camera positioned in a friends’ flat overlooking the traffic going into the Clyde Tunnel in Glasgow, I record every commercial vehicle once it reached a certain spot on the road for the duration of a whole day. |
