Series of animated sequences, printed in the ‘Lenticular print technique’

13 prints 2016 - 19 prints 2017.

The animation moves according to the viewing angle of the audience in the gallery. 

'Animated Images is Hijazi's response to our changing relationship with new media. Drawing on her experience in animation and film, she has used innovative lenticular printing technology to make artworks.

White, mannequin-like figures are set against background grids, trapped in time and space by their incessant, repetitive actions (from emotional reactions to military training routines, to the hypnotic inertia of being addicted to bad news). In order to unlock the shifting images, the viewer must also perform small, repetitive movements.

Newly-familiar elements of modern life (such as frames taken from social media and instinctive movements from using portable or gaming devices) explore the different ways we interact with the world and process the relentless flow of images.

Hijazi questions our social responsibility as both makers and consumers of the news. Whether actively seeking overexposure, or passively suffering from it, the sheer amount of information and number of digital images has desensitised and dehumanised us as viewers, who are at the same time viewed through the sharp prism of her work.'
