Nostalgia
2016
Everyone has memories that are the embodiment of happiness; memories that capture the carefree nature of childhood. These memories serve as a source of comfort, because while the future is unpredictable, the past is stable and fixed.
I used a unique form of animation called the praxinoscope. A spinning mirrored carousel reflects animation cells, creating movement. I designed and built the praxinoscopes using plywood, motors, a laser cutter, and plastic mirrors.
