animation | ART TREE

Can you draw with light? YES, I learned how to do it at a workshop called Light Fantastic at Artplay. Haley Rivers taught us the history of Light Graffiti and how easy it is to create. You need light and a photographer.

Haley & me

Juggle Light

We explored how to create different patterns with light. The types on light we used were from juggle balls, hula hoops, glow sticks and torches.

We made an animation of a city which I hope to be able to put up on my blog soon. I enjoyed making this animation. All of the animations from Light Fantastic workshops will be exhibited in November.

I liked Light Fantastic. I recommend this to anyone exploring different types of arts.

Here are a few pictures I made at home.

Music Note

Saltbush was a creative show made of art, music and dance. Compagnia TPO an Italian company produced Saltbush in collaboration with Australian artists. Delwyn Manix, from Adelaide, was the artist for the imagery projected on to the “magic carpet.” Saltbush is a story about Sonny and Rosie travelling through Aboriginal countries of Australia. They are guided by Jaida who was like a spirit. They crossed through rivers, city, dessert, countryside and finished with a celebratory dance.

The audience was invited to participate and dance on the magic carpet. I liked the interactive magic carpet and enjoyed being part of the performance. I also enjoyed the combination of art, music, dance and story.

I throughly enjoyed Saltbush and recommend it to people who like dance and aboriginal stories. It is for all ages.
