Jules Marey and the invention of the moving image, is an idea i've
been working in this piece. Taken from an animated series of black
and white photographs, the aggresive content within this work challenges
the whole genre behind the zoetrope, to entertain families with moving
comedy cartoon characters.
Through this piece I'm exploring the fine line between the notion
of role-play, taking on another persona and becoming the aggressor,
and exploring this on a parallel with real aggression. In other words
I'm exploring acting.
