Climates/Climats

Description

The "climates" of this film allude to the relationships of a couple. Atmosphere and moods are induced by watercolor designs, mostly washes, suggesting landscapes through which faces and figures appear. The effect is dreamlike, an ebb and flow of color, form and line, to the accompaniment of music. The animation is largely of textures rather than of design, washes of color that come and go to the bidding of the music or the whim of the artist. Film without words.
