synopsis
This mosaic of faces and figures in arrangements typical for family and holiday movies and snapshots consists of a combination of 3,564 paintings. The original style of their cinematic miniatures gives rise to the various strokes of the brush while preserving their photographic precision. The series of images create micro-stories of non-dramatic as well as remarkable events.DETAIL:
Careful work with the level of whiteness captures the various scenes’ mood, as for instance a bright day on an empty beach.
