Burrellesque

About This Movie

Burrellesque is an interesting piece from Lesley Keen, diving into Glasgow's Pollok Park and the Burrell Collection. The animation captures this shifting landscape with a gentle, almost meditative pace. It's not just about the visuals; there's a kind of spiritual thread running through the artifacts that Keen manages to evoke beautifully. The 35mm film adds a rich texture, giving everything a sense of depth and nostalgia. You can really feel the effort to intertwine the local culture with the animated form, creating a unique ambiance. It’s more like a wandering thought than a straightforward narrative, which makes it distinctive in its approach. Definitely a unique slice of animation history worth experiencing for its atmospheric qualities.
