Ouroboros or What is Eating You, 2016

3D animation loop, sound by Spoph


This animation work refers to Ouroboros – the ancient symbol of a serpent eating its own tail – as an infinitive loop, a metaphor for the human condition. The endless repetition of destructive behaviors and thoughts that causes immense personal sorrow is a cycle that is almost impossible to change. When thoughts cannot escape a repetitive pattern, they destroy the repeater.
