Your Paintings - Kandinsky’s ‘Schaukeln’
A statue comes to life in a magical gallery and climbs into the painting 'Schaukeln' or 'Shaking' by Wassily Kandinsky. Inside the painting she explores Kandinsky’s role in the birth of abstract art, his discovery of his synaesthesia, and his use of colour to express feelings. We learn about the techniques Kandinsky used in his compositions, and his placement within the artistic world at the time of the painting and beyond.
In a mixture of live action, animation and elements of the painting itself, the clip brings the painting to life and ends by encouraging viewers to paint their feelings.
