Time to shape-shift.
Heavily influenced by the poetic riddles of the Suprematism movement and Memphis Design era, ‘Hear Me Now ’ is a hypothetical creation of an idealistic utopia built around the poetics of the overlooked elements: shapes, lines and forms.
These hallucinatory moving narratives pay modern homage to the analogue techniques of early animation art of Walter Ruttman and Oskar Fischinger by employing its simplistic stop-motion style to elevate the theatricality of these elements to a status of their own.
Composed of abstract, non-objective shapes, Much like puppetry, each movement is choreographed in a dance through virtual space. The lack of horizon, perspective lines, shapes are unanchored and floating through infinite space, much like the visual aesthetics that Suprematism encompasses.
Existing in a parallel world that transcends the bounds of logic, these lifeless elements are immortalised and personified where they are able to fulfil their antic play rather than be entwined with the weightiness bestowed onto it by society.
