DILLASCOPE

2017, 12"X12"

MATTE ACRYLIC ON CANVAS

I have created an animated painting using the technique of “phenakistoscopes.” This is one of the first forms of animation and works great on a turntable as it must have a circular layout. 

The artwork is meant to capture the style and mood of J Dilla’s masterpiece “Donuts”. 

This phenakistoscope should be played at 45 RPM with the best light possible. You must also use your camera phone to view the animation.
