Haikuloop is an ongoing archive of rotoscoped animations that transforms movement into short visual poems. Drawn frame by frame from live-action footage, each loop reimagines gestures of play, balance, ritual, and contemplation through subtle interventions where reality and imagination intertwine. Often escaping notice, these gestures emerge as quiet sites of resistance to productivity, performance, and acceleration. Inspired by the brevity and openness of haiku poetry, the animations unfold as autonomous fragments, revealing the poetic potential of the dialogue between the ordinary and the extraordinary.
Experimental extension of the Haikuloop project: Haikuloop Spatial Sequence
An experimental extension of Haikuloop, this installation presents the project through videomapping onto hand-knitted surfaces. Animation extends beyond the screen, unfolding as a sequence of interconnected visual fragments that invite a slower, spatial experience of movement.
