Assessment 23 April 12.20 t/m 12.55


1* Explain as simply as possible what is your intention. Introduction project, where it is about.

This project is about things you want to remember, but somehow forget and things you want to forget but still remember.

This will be an attempt to portrait how memory is something we always carry with us and how a space can reveal its memories. I am playing with the unreliable nature of memories and how they are reshaped continually by obtained experience and knowledge.

I am planning to make a short stop-motion animation with sound where I will try to visualize how a women deals with her memories, when returning to her childhood house after her father died. This project is a continuation of my last project 'Portrait of an empty house' in both subject and technique.

The memories will be drawn upon glass objects, windows and doors and will use the space behind it as the space where the memory takes place. So through glass you are able to look back in time.

I want to play with the drawing and its place in the space. I want it to interact with the space to make the connection between the real and unreal. I made a study where I let a drawing on glass interact with the real space.


2* Show the current state of the project: demos/reels/sketches/preview anything that can show the most recent developments.



3* Explain how you envision the way your work should be presented and experienced in the final show? A workshop, a screening, an installation, etc? Propose two venue options and state your preference. Make sketches, maps, outlines, etc, for each option.



4* Demonstrate why the choices you made at this point support your intention. If necessary express your doubts and issues that you are facing regarding these choices.

  • The choice of stop motion or dropping frames and film.
  • Finding help with lightning the space
  • Camera......How bad is it using different camera's?
  • How high the quality of the images and what about using different camera's? (ask Timo, bring in laptop and show dragon stop motion)
