It was created by drawing with a chinagraph pencil on acetate, directly under a camera. I drew for twelve hours more or less non-stop from Saturday until the early hours of Sunday, then attacked it again on Sunday for another eight hours ... I believe the fluid, flowing nature came about because I was being driven by the narration and really wasn’t sure what each drawing would morph or lead in to.
