this is a shot of a work in progress taken from a painting design in repeat I did several years ago - my then professor suggested that I remove the characters from the surface- I did a performance piece live - I made magnetic characters and attached them to the surface of the background painting so the viewer could play with them - then I made puppets 3-d that gave a performance - from that time i failed to achieve the full dynamics that i wanted to with performance - with animation I believe there is more potenital to tell a story than on a flat 2-d surface - this will be my attempt to reach that goal - this is a work in progress - the figures have not yet been completely designed - I will upload the progress on a daily basis even though it will not be complete that in itself will be a performance
