Again, various variations on black solids, but here without shades of blue ....

Once again, lots of water, both filmed and drawn ....

Some passages seem to come from live-action videos, especially for the aquatic surfaces at the beginning; but it is in fact the animation of mere drawings made by hand on Ipad...

The three basic drawings, of different textures, are sometimes coloured or illuminated in red or blue.

Each movement begins with the end of the previous movement, chronologically reversed:

first movement: the three textures follow one another fleetingly, the aquatic first and the vaporous last,

second movement: the vaporous texture dominates, with the appearance of the rough texture at the very end,

third movement: the rough texture prevails, with the appearance of the aquatic texture at the very end,

fourth movement: the aquatic texture dominates.

Red, black and green lines intertwine in front of a background of similar colours.

Where we go back to the rectangles of various textures from the sequence "towards the horizon".

first movement: the rectangles and their drop shadows merge and separate to form different moving figures.

second movement: in a closer shot, the rectangular aspect fades and a shining point underscores the shades of blue.

third movement: the rectangles become triangles and rotate in space; then everything returns to normal ...

Curves and surfaces intertwine and whirl through the space in white, black or Prussian blue. The second and third movements start from a short passage of the previous movement and developing it differently.

first movement: rather fast ...

second movement: rather slow ...

third movement: from rather fast to rather slow ...

A quiet journey through landscapes made of moving clouds, black lines and coloured shapes, all digitally drawn, sometimes with a background of real elements filmed on the fly.

From one end of each version to the other, the same almost continuous line slips and winds towards the horizon.

First version: the course of the line is punctuated by various plays of light or short passages of drawn elements.

Second version: along the line, here a little bit longer, various extracts of old animated sequences appear, sometimes in a slightly modified aspect. I leave it to the courageous visitor to identify these sequences among all those presented on the site.

Five drawn lines merge with actual shootings of sea foam curves.

The sequence marks the return to pure drawing, here very colourful.

Each of the three movements is derived from a single numerical composition that appears at least once in its entirety; elsewhere in the movement, the various graphic elements appear in changing colours, with a sharp or sometimes blurred definition, in still or moving position, seen from the front or from various angles of perspective.
