This animation work and installation was created in occasion of the exhibition

 SOFT CITY – STADT & KUNST // JAPAN & BERLIN

Stop Motion Animation in collaboration with Yukihiro Taguchi.

Music by End of Dimension

This cooperative project combines the real urban landscape of Marzahn-Hellersdorf, which Taguchi captured in stop-motion clips, with Ciccarello’s imaginary figures, whose stories were inspired by their surroundings. Both hiked the district, filmed and drew directly on site and noted down the cartoon characters in the real landscape with the help of a transparent drawing surface. The animation is shown together with an installation of painted, transparent panels and drawings on the windows of the exhibition space.
