animistica
Nikki Schuster
Organic textures found in Mexico’s natural landscapes are captured frame by frame in macroscopic view. The sequences are morphed into each other and the textures begin to transform and become alive. The camera is panning over root plants, fur, feathers, bones and animal cadavers. Processes of decay and rot characterize the biotope passing-by. animistica is an experimental animation film about nature and death, at the border between the lively and the inanimate.
