Blue (2017) is an animation installation in stop motion technique, and consists of three short films, which through video projectors are displayed on possibly three different walls.
The minimalistic piece has been inspired by meditation and its capacity to bring calmness and clarity to the mind. At the same time it was also influenced by the music video “Relax Dont Do It” by Frankie Goes to Hollywood. Blue does not have a story, it is communicating on an abstract level. The narration is jumping back and forth as in a music video, but what is happening in the animation is at the same time simple and clear. Simultaneously the blue fabric in the back is moving gently.
