Tectonica 1:14 2018
Tectonica/Arc is a short cyclical rotoscope animation exploring animated impressions of European history, violence, repetition, female sexuality and rebirth. All frames are hand drawn and based on a compilation of source footage shot by Léna Lewis-King and of experimental footage of 3D models explored in a virtual screen space. The soundtrack was made by Léna Lewis-King, adapted from a poem.
Lyrics:
Witness too too much in the dark of it all,
Footing on tectonic plates unsteady and
a mixture of giggles and harsh words emanate
from that bedroom
Space-less and airless,
waiting for something that is formless in
an imagination of it's arrival
smoke spilling out from a tipped bottle
