Description
Willem Boronski has released his latest work, "The South Route to Tarascon," which explores the theme of human migration. The video employs Boronski's signature stop-motion animation technique, using ink and charcoal drawings, paper cutouts, and pages from ancient texts. Boronski draws inspiration from Vincent van Gogh’s "The Painter on the Road to Tarascon," embedding the theme of amor fati – the love and acceptance of one's fate – into the very fabric of his narrative. The video reflects on the unchanging nature of human desire and ambition, which remains relevant today. It invites viewers to contemplate the dreams that drive us and the horizons we chase, reminding us that the journey of migration is an intrinsic part of human history and destiny.
