艺术家胡安·丰塔尼夫(Juan Fontanive)构建了面向鸟类的翻页书,在一些手工构建机制的帮助下,翻页书不断循环。这些静止的图像来自18世纪和19世纪的自然历史插图,当它们结合在一起时,模拟了一只飞行中的鸟的运动。虽然这些作品都是今年完成的,但是Fontanive从2004年起就开始创作这个系列,当时他正在皇家艺术学院学习。之前的动画探索都是用石墨和彩色铅笔画蝴蝶和小鸟。
Artist Juan Fontanive (previously) constructs ornithology-oriented flip books which constantly loop with the help of a few hand-built mechanics. The still images are sourced from 18th and 19th-century natural history illustrations, and when combined imitate the motion of a bird in flight. Although these works were completed this year, Fontanive has been working on the series since 2004 while he was studying at the Royal College of Art. Previous animation explorations have featured butterflies and birds drawn with graphite and colored pencil. You can see more of his automated sculptures on his website and Vimeo.
