Animated Wonderworlds

Martin Woodtli

Creatures built of pixels inhabit fantastic worlds, flight simulators let us soar like birds and media facades transform entire buildings. Animated images like this are pervasive in our visual culture and define everyday life to such a degree that we hardly are aware of them. Hyperrealist feature films blur the boundaries between reality and fiction. The exhibition presents works and the creative processes behind them, providing insights into the diverse worlds of animation in the digital era.

    Martin Woodtli, Switzerland (2000)

    Founded his own studio in Zurich in 1999. With idiosyncratic visual experiments
    an approaches he quickly made his mark within the international design scene and won several
    design awards. Within a competition for the new Swiss banknote series
    he was nominated second prize and received an invitation for the final round. 2007 he got the
    «designpreis schweiz» first price.
    Martin Woodtli is associated with a young swiss design scene, running their studios mainly with
    an emphasis on passion and joy for design, rather than monetary interests. Woodtli seems to live
    after a quote from brian eno’s diary: to do something as persistently and sedulously as no one
    else would do, is a good way of creating something unique. His work manifests itself in complex
    typographic arrangements and dense, manicly layered patterns of everyday objects.

    Woodtli

    (2001)

    Die Gestalten Verlag

    Swiss Martin Woodtli´s works stand out in the category graphic design. Woodtli exhausts the many possibilties that computer technology, print techniques and color offer. He unconventionally uses 3D-software to create dynamic, extremely detailed, constructed and colorful 3D-graphics. Combined with multilayered vector graphics /colors and presented isometrically, Woodtli´s unique aesthetics and very own microcosm speak their own experimental and futuristic language.
