Hi All,



(Apologies for cross-posting.)


We are looking for people who work with comics, animation and/or VR/AR and
that are willing to collaborate for an installation to take place July 2019
at Bournemouth University. All collaborators welcome! This exhibition is
related to my and Alexandra Alberda's PhD research projects.



*VAST/O *



The phonetic differences between the English word “Vast” and the Portuguese
one “Vasto” lead to an exploration of the creative expression of
psychological phenomena such as agoraphobia and claustrophobia and their
physiological consequences such as of shortness of breath and vertigo.



“VAST/O” aims to be a piece that generates the sensations of paradoxical
spatial experiences by combining actual and animated spaces, through static
and moving images. The use of comics panels in relation with a specific
architectural space and the use of animation not only in its traditional
channels, but also by means of augmented reality apps for interaction
between viewers and spaces, will provide narrative layers that enhance the
engagement of the experience.



If interested, please send us your portfolio/website/instagram handle and a
selected work (new or old) that relates with the subject of topophobia or
with the notion of vastness *by April 30th*. Those selected, will be
contacted for a brief discussion about the collaboration roles and
calendar. Also, some of the selected works might be included in the final
installation taking place in Lisbon (Portugal) by the end of this year.



Please send all interests and questions to:

Looking forward to hearing from you all and please feel free to share with
those that might be interested.



Best,
