"Using a hand-drawn animation technique called “flipping,” physical objects collide with the sounds made by playing two improvised scores." FLIPPING is an automatic animation (action animating) created by applying ‘flipping’, a traditional hand-drawn animation technique. In other word, using zoom lens, this work was made by shooting frame by frame from top to bottom of accidental images. The images are created as follows: Two pieces of transparent cell paper are put in light space. Both watercolor ink and oily ink of different properties are poured between the paper, and then the two pieces of paper are flipped. As the result, accidental images are created. Personally, this work is an experimental animation that I got my inspiration from the ‘action painting’ technique by Jackson Pollock and tried to capture the continuity of images as a performance concept. Likewise, the music was composed by overlapping the scores after partly burning the two improvised scores whose types are different. This work has a structure with the complex relationship that two planes are oppositely located in the light and dark space, two materials exist between the two planes, and two sounds permeate between the two materials. And it stays between the life (time) and sensibility of the artist himself.
