Charybdis 2: Leviathan

Leviathan is a stopmotion animation video, made for a project which also consists of drawings, collages and digitally manipulated photos ('Suburbs/Leviathan"). It is made as a homage to old Horror movies and to the master of horror George Romero.

The main theme of the video is the claustrophobia caused by the urban environment, the repression with which people deal with their lives, which is here compared with the symmetry and the atmosphere of the suburbs. The peak of this delirium is rationalised as a sea monster, Leviathan, invoked by the people themselves, a cannibalistic version of their own repressions and phobias.

Leviathan screened at Athens Digital Arts Festival in 2016.
