WINNERS 2015

CUT! is an exhibition curated by students from the MA Culture, Criticism & Curation course at Central Saint Martins that brings together new animations made by students from the college’s MA Character Animation course and new composers from the Drama Composition Pathway at The Guildhall School of Music & Drama. This unique collaboration takes place at The Old Operating Theatre, famous for its fascinating collection about historic surgery and original anatomical theatre. The exhibition showcases 40 animations integrated within this quirky historic venue and offers contemporary interpretations on the 19th century surgical operations that took place there and the objects associated with them. The juxtaposition of antique objects and settings with digital animations provokes questions about scientific certainty and the effect of human imagination on it. Cuted dynamic logo represents the spirit of anatomical theater and contemporary works of animation students.
