"TIN BOX" 2012 Video/35mm Film Animation, Computer Animation/Stop Motion/Super 8, 9' 32"
As a child I remember myself giving colours to words, as an adult I see movements when I hear music: A tin box filled with needle lace of the artist's mother, becomes animated for a film based on Greek traditional children's songs, and acts as an intermission between two performances of a talking doll, and as an interpretation of the music instruments and their improvisation into animation. Old Super-8 personal footage runs during the movie concentrated on old toys, traditional games, and gatherings. Light blue is the saxophone, pink is the trumpet, dark blue is the guitar, green is the bass, and yellow and orange are the drums. My synaesthesia.
