Joan Miró 1997

Directed by Paweł Walicki

A film from the series "Impressions" made using classical and trick animation techniques, inspired by the paintings of Joan Miro. Deformed figures - ideograms from Miro's paintings, float in an undefined space. The plastic forms of the sun and moon symbolize the elements associated with the cosmos - the activity of day and the magic of night, the eternal relationship of light and darkness. The natural link between the cosmos and the earth are the birds, which, returning from their skyward wanderings, smash the remnants of the night with their wings, only to disappear a moment later into the light of day.
