Teresa Tomas. CUERDAS. 3D Animation. 1: 30. 2009

This is the first installment of Teresa Tomás’ new animation “Cuerdas”, which in Spanish means both “Are” and “Sound”. Hence the title speaks about the double nature of the characters of this work: “being” and “sound”. The generating theme is music, music as a pet. The work has been created as a Suite and it is developed into movements. An animated sculpture is associated to each movement. This process has been made in 3D by the artist herself, in the form of micro-stories. On the basis of these virtual models, the artist starts a complex process that gives life to the sculptures. The first movement of the Suite (“Cuerdas”, 1 minute 30’) is about a hybrid dog, which is a cross of two musical instruments: violin and arrow guitar. This first movement tells the story of the liberation of the sculpture, which frees itself from the 5 strings that are tied to its neck. When “Cuerdas” starts to walk, it meets “Llorón”, a tree that has been generated by the tears of its multiple eyes. In this spot, and as a symbolic burial the dog looks for a place to get rid of the pentagram that guided him.
