Target Orbit is one of a series of multimedia projects that Dario Solman has been developing and re-purposing for over a decade under the title The Heart of Perspective, the Making of the Film. This expansive project consists of studies and tests for a film that will never be finished and explores themes related to the way we produce and experience art, cinema, culture and politics.
The animation seen here depicts a journey from the real world, through the contemporary art gallery space, and into the fantastical laboratory of art production and cosmic inspiration. A geometric human figure dominates the work and reappears throughout in various roles, as a spectator and as a protagonist.
