Cartographer Mapping Scarscapes #1

Created through direct animation in which the artist etched and scratched lines and forms on photo negatives, this spectral and poetic film touches on themes of loss and rootlessness. Imbued with expressionist energy and featuring fleeting ghostly figures and landscapes, the work is inspired by the artist’s attempt to grapple with his fading memories of past voyages across Southeast Asia.
