Strap in for a delightfully disorienting dance of humans going places
The US filmmaker Conner Griffith specialises in making absorbing, deeply original digital art from images of the ways we move around in and shape our world. His imaginative animation Auto toys with people and automobiles, walkways and highways, forming an impressionistic and enchanting collage of everyday scenes. Whether it’s in service to a riff on the perpetual motion of modern life or simply a means of providing a jauntily enjoyable ride, Griffith’s craftsmanship is wonderfully clever and full of visual delights.
