Let The Lilac In - Poem by Michael Pederson
2024
The animation is the result of collaboration with the Poet Michael Pederson. I was inspired by the works of William Kentridge, Lizzy Hobbs and Anwyn Beier throughout my development process. I found a specific interest in communicating the sleepy feeling the poem depicts, drawing from Pederson’s expressive descriptions of nature within my own imagery, which was elevated through the use of charcoal, which I later inverted and overlayed onto cyanotype backgrounds.
