Fraida Abtan

The flight of birds is a mytho-poetic look at the realm of the spirit. Women draped in peacock feathers release invisible birds from their cages. Movements of the body are abstracted to fill the empty space. There, they seem to harden into wings, extending the body towards flight.

Through the use of Adobe After Effects, Abtan will explore animation through a spatial and temporal remapping process, interjecting real-time examples in Max/Jitter. This combination of techniques is indicative of Abtan's experimental practice and methodology. Participants should have a working familiarity with After Effects, as they will be learning techniques used in Abtan's practice.
