Visages, 2026
Stop-motion animation

Ghosts (documentation), 2026. 
Digital prints on acetate

A collaborative stop-frame animation and lightboxes made by guest artist Samara Scott with OSE Associates and Despacito Art School (ages 5-12+). Visages and Ghosts (documentation) were developed over a series of experimental workshops exploring liquidity, spillages and borders. During the workshops, the group used repurposed waste plastic bags and gloopy everyday household products such as hair gel and food dye to create large-scale translucent film frames. DIY and direct to surface, the works were made using alternative negative etching, pencil cel animation and long “exposures” of materials on surface. The resultant artworks Visages and Ghosts, which are made from photographs and scanner shots taken during the workshops, relate to a wider body of work that Scott terms ‘viscous compositions’.
