You Could Sunbathe in this Storm (Slight Return)
A film by Alice Dunseath
Additional Animation by Luke George and Tom O’Meara
Filmmaker and animator Alice Dunseath works across a range of mediums including video art, animation, live action and installations, using visual storytelling to explore symphonic chaos, unrestricted by real-world laws. Her work aims to simplify the complex and to recontextualize the familiar through mutating forms and shocking flares of acid color. Ultimately, she works to illustrate the interconnected nature of all phenomena, the ineffable, transient nature of life, and the transformative possibilities of death.
You Could Sunbathe in this Storm (Slight Return) uses stop motion, elementary geometric forms and inorganic growth to reflect humanity and the natural world. The work begins with the dramatic collapse of what could be a child’s architectural construction of three-dimensional plaster objects. The pale cubes, cones and hemispheres become animate, transforming and interacting in playful, flirtatious movements. Suddenly, their smooth surfaces are overtaken by intensely chromatic, crystalline formations (grown from Dunseath’s own recipe!), evoking vast, otherworldly landscapes erupting with alien flora.
