Holes (2020-4)
Exhibitions
A solo exhibition of this project will be shown at South Hill Park Arts Centre from 7/10/24-10/11/24. This includes an installation of the Holes film shown through a peepshow, production drawings made during the animation process and a series of large-scale immersive drawings created after the fim was finished.
Installation version
Originally created to be viewed through a peephole, Holes is a short, abstract, animated film that hints at an imaginary journey through a female body traced by oil pastels, milk, ink, detergent, lipstick and pomegranates using hand drawing, fingers, After Effects and a microscopic camera.
The soundtrack was designed by Anat Ben-David.
The film was commissioned for a solo exhibition that ran at ASIFAKEIL, Q21, Vienna from 1/12/21 – 20/2/22.

In this installation, animation is glimpsed through a giant peepshow made of layers of black paper that hints at a visceral and haptic journey through the body. There is one large peephole in the square window and a number of smaller peepholes in the triangular side window.
