2.30-4.30pm

A programme of animated films that explores the relationship between the act of making and the act of making things move.

Animation is often referred to as being a combination of art forms - drawing, painting, film, literature, sculpture, and music. Programmed by Animate Projects, this selection of experimental films sets out to show the distinct and fundamental role that ‘making’ has for much animation practice. It includes films that employ ‘craft’ techniques, using a range of physical materials in their construction. Others provoke us to reconsider how we think about ‘objects’ - physical and digital - or explore the ways in which animation itself is made and constructed.

The screening is part of COLLECT 2011 the annual fair for contemporary craft.

Free admission to the screening with a day pass. Tickets for COLLECT can be purchased via the Crafts Council website - £10 online or £15 on the door.
