Profile picture of Matilde Saeed Senos

Matilde Senos is a mixed media animation artist and director with a love for the mysterious and whimsical. Her work is often self-indulgent, moving from playful fairy-tale-like themes in her films to reflective narratives exploring the self in her installations. She’s recently been experimenting with the physical boundaries of the screen and having a lot of fun!

An interactive installation prototype about connection and the relationship between the self, others and the world, combining animation, projection, interactive objects and a Pepper's Ghost. When a fairy from a parallel world approaches you with a desire to be in the same dimension as you, will you help her break down the barriers that separate you? Created in collaboration with interaction designers Yidi Chen and Bella Ciaramitaro, featuring music by Michael Costin. This was an experiment in interactive installations, and I'm excited to try more things within the medium and also expand this into a large fully fledged work! The showcase video includes short interviews with some of the members of the audience.
