Working with a team of digital animators the Carters have created an animated version of Constables study. Every aspect has been brought to life and the seamless 2·5 hour loop takes the painted scene from dawn to dusk. Only perceptible upon sustained looking, the landscape displays subtle shifts in colour and light as the clouds pass by, the sun moves in the sky and at night the stars and the moon emerge. Each blade of corn, each leaf on a tree, each ripple in the water has been informed by real time footage. It has been brought to life with over 7,000 man-hours of digital animation. The artists examine the boundaries between the real and the imagined, analogue and digital and the traditional and the contemporary.
