Karen Aqua Animations
Ground Zero/Sacred Ground Youtube Video
Unfortunately, Karen Aqua, at the night of her animation show, she was hospitalized and could not make the talk. For her step-in, she gave her husband permission to speak about her work. As he introduced her many animations, he lightened the mood with a few jokes pertaining to his marriage. Kinfield Aqua did a nice job with the introducing his wife work.
Karen Aqua is a world winning film maker, who has made some of the most famous films that have been shown worldwide. A series of Animations were shown; my favorite animation was Heavenly Bodies. This animation was about love, at least that’s what I got from the film. It started out with two stars, which turned into two people; the gender was not specific which was more intriguing. There was a lot o asymmetry and shape changing. Each figure shown was abstract, or should I say not well defined. The music was sensual and relaxed. At the end of the film, the two partners came back in place as two separate stars.
The other films shown were Yours for the Taking, Nine Lives, Penatalia, Perpetual Moments, Kakania, Andaluz, and Sensorium. This talk was almost two hours long, and I actually left early towards the very end.
The Animation Gropund Zero was also shown. It was more of an educational anime, but was so powerful, and its message was very clear. The graphics were so well put together. If you watch it, i think you'll like it too.
