Pandemic

2017 · 9 min · Animation

A computer animation in which the camera circles around an architectural structure, only to penetrate its center a moment later. The interior turns out to be an orderly tangle of a huge number of connections. Somewhere here, new energy is born. Electronic, pulsating music sets inanimate matter in motion, and it begins to live a life of its own. The camera closely follows its movements, taking the viewer on a hypnotic journey full of surprises.

When he fails, he starts chasing a butterfly. He doesn't know that under this figure hides the prince of white and black magic.

The Crossing of the Jews Through the Red Sea

The Crossing of the Jews Through the Red Sea

Virtual moving spaces, emphasized by sound, refer to the biblical passage of the people of Israel through the Red Sea. This is the language with which Prof. Krzysztof Kiwerski has been delighting and surprising viewers for years, creating unreal worlds based on the elements we know: earth, water, fire, and wind. Spectacular moving compositions assault the senses with color, light, form, and sound, expressively referring to the Old Testament story known to all.

The Rolling Stones

The Rolling Stones · 2013

The Rolling Stones

This animation based on motion land, also used by Kiwerski in his earlier film People of Israel Went into the Midst of the Red Sea on Dry Ground, illustrates dynamic movement, intrinsic to the course of history. Mass, which undergoes constant change creating and destroying new shapes at the same time, is the protagonist here. The Rolling Stones is a symbolic interpretation of civilisations, which rise and collapse, and eventually a reflection on the impermanence of the human fate and empires built by man.

Scarecrow in a characteristic Polish landscape as a witness to the dramatic events of Polish history. World wars, changes in socio-political systems, civilizational transformations, national dramas - in this animated film take the symbolic form of costumes. Zygmunt Konieczny's dramatic music adds expression to Krzysztof Kiwerski's visual vision.
