Marc Krüger: Animato

Animato evokes movement, flow, especially in the city, inert mineral structure contrasting with the organic and alive side of men crossing from side to side, like an arrow. The passage of man from one place to another, and all life and existence that can be part of this change of state. The crowd scenes disputing the quieter beaches where the…
