"There is again a silence that accompanies cartoons, a silence that does not come from a lack a passion for music... There is an emphasis put on the poetics of the image that is seen at that moment along with everything that is added to what is being seen: a comment in a low voice, an onlooker that comes late, a cough, and the sound of the stockings of a nearby girl crossing her legs... This thing does not want to be a drawing nor a video. The images are giving testimony to something that has happened and that no longer exists. It is all a game that becomes a nursery rhyme or an arabesque of cyclical vortex-like continuity. It is an animation of abstract concepts that are evoked symbolically through the simpler figurative rules of the game that involve the subjects that have been chosen." (Federico Bovo)
