The watercolours and storyboards series has conceived as part of the project Blessings of the masses which is a very long work in progress of expanded cinema/transmedia storytelling.
The inspiration is the George Lucas THX1138’s legendary movie. The movie depicts a dystopian future in which the populace is controlled through android police officers and mandatory use of drugs that suppress emotion, including sexual desire.
Watercolours and storyboards (Blessings of the masses), 2014/2018. Watercolour, gouache, water-soluble colour pencils and permanent pencils (Luminance 6901 by Caran d’Ache) on tracing paper, each work 33×45 cm.
