In 1986 I became fascinated by a series of deaths that occurred in the Northern Territory of Australia. These deaths were the result of a car bogging in the desert. I was interested in creating an experimental animation which explored the progression into a delirious state - pyschosomatic - brought about by the environment they perished in.
INDEFINABLE MOODS is a 2D/3D animation based upon aspects of the human psyche. The director has contrasted outer elements of the human environment and related these symbols to the deeper psychological thoughts and desires that exist in every culture.
LIVING ON THE COMET is an animated film that uses a recurring dream as a vehicle for examining and analysing the various ways in which we interpret and evaluate the patterns of our lives and the world. The four functions identified in this piece are ‘thinking’, ‘feeling’, ‘sensation’ and ‘intuition’. Each function allows us to experience a different reality and presents us with different interpretations of the same objects and events. This short animated film is based on the art of one of Australia’s leading new artists, Kathy Smith.
