Abstract
This paper provides commentary on my process for creating my MFA thesis show, Transluminal, a work of expanded animation. I have deconstructed the principles of animation and interwoven accounts of intimate personal experiences to explore how Transluminal breaks away from our traditional expectation of the animation form and into the material world. In Transluminal, I abstract the human body and physiological processes to create tactile sculptures that provide an immersive sensory experience for the viewer, allowing moments of intimacy, discovery, and humor. Through active viewership and the spirit of play, the work is in a constant state of becoming that reflects our own bodies’ material condition and illuminates the tension between our desire for and lack of control over this constant metamorphosis.
