“Boundlessness in Motion” is a unique artistic workshop focused on creating animated thumbnails using the technique of collage and hand-drawn animation. The class combines exploring the history of deportations to Siberia and a reflection on the concept of boundlessness and crossing boundaries – both physical and emotional – as well as artistic expressions expressed in short, symbolic animations. Workshops are adjusted to both beginners and those with prior animation experience.
The workshops accompany the exhibition “Boundlessness in Sybir“.
