Hidden Soul of the Fjord – Album of Heidi Torsvik and Winter Lazerus

Beneath the Surface touch the Sky

Animation 16 min. by Simone Hooymans

Over the last years, my use of traditional techniques combined with modern technology has become much more relevant in the subjects and sources of inspiration of my work. This matches naturally with the concept of the new album of Torsvik / Winter ́Hidden Soul of the fjords ́.

This will be the second time I’ve worked with Torsvik/Winter on an animation/music project. The first shorter project was an animation made for their song ́Trees That Whisper ́.

The animation for the song ́Beneath The Surface Touch The Sky ́ is a journey from the deepest places of the Fjord up to the highest mountain-top.

The perpetual tapestry is an experimental animation about a collapsing world in transformation, where everything is tied together by the threads in a woven tapestry.

Det uendelege teppet er ein eksperimentell animasjonsfilm om ei verd som er i ferd med å gå under og bli transformert, og alt er bunde saman av trådar i ein bildevev.
