Still from Untitled 02
The “Untitled” series is the artists' first collaboration after a 20-year friendship. It consists of an animated digital painting accompanied by synthesized guitar and choir. Untitled 01 was the inaugural work offered on Folia, and we’re excited to present the second work in the ongoing series.
