In response to this week’s theme of Object Oriented Ontology, I made a short playful animation video related to the formation of clouds.
By making this animation I attempted to make something out of an environmental transformation that happens at its own timescale, unhindered by human intervention (not taking climate change into account.)
I started out trying to draw the scientific process as it is, but then decided to weave a story around it with the formation of clouds as the premise.
Similar work has been created by photographer Tom Leighton, in his photoseries called "Variegation" which is inspired by the nightlife of foliage. It explores how the process of photosynthesis happens and plants gather and burn energy and continue to grow and function in the night.
