_Dancing with Dead Animals

3D scans of dead animals are turned into an animated film projected onto a dome

2022 Maarten Isaäk de Heer
Visit the project

Over the course of six months, animation artist Maarten Isaäk de Heer collected all the animals that died in his direct environment. Together with other dead organic materials, he 3D scanned the corpses and revived them in his personal conception of paradise, which goes beyond good and evil; simply illustrating the same biology that governs us all. A celebration of life that walks the line between tableaux vivant and danse macabre.

Preservation Wishes

We, the producer as well as the artist, do not care about preservation. In cord with the idea of the Dead Animals project, we feel that everything will vanish and return in other forms. Enjoy it now.
