tranthemov. 1986 Toei theatrical cel on a painted gouache plate, thick ink contours, hard two-tone shade bands on every form, analog 35mm grain. Feature-film lighting has clear light direction, hard rims, painted atmosphere behind the cels. A wide moss-green robot transformer crouched in a park with its knees bent into a seat and its folded shoulder armor forming a backrest painted with peeling sunflowers, an old man in a mustard cardigan reading a newspaper while sitting on the robot’s thigh, pigeons pecking crumbs off the other knee, a woman in a coral dress tying a balloon to one finger, tulips and marigolds growing around its planted feet, fountain spray throwing rainbows behind it.
