Jacco Olivier
HD Animation created by the combination of multiple works

Jacco Olivier is known for his combination of film and painting - he creates intimate animations that document his painting process. His works are narrative episodes that capture moments from daily life set in microcosmic worlds. Photographing every step of the painting process, he uses the still images to create stop-action animation. In ‘Momentum’, Olivier depicts a man preparing for a dive. The impressionist, intuitive technique of the painting emphasizes the movement and the dynamic of the character, hinting at the intimacy of the moment.
