Olga Pärn & Priit Pärn
A privileged glimpse into the visual design of four animated films.
When the film is set in motion, it keeps scrolling until it is over. Surely there have also been moments where you would like to say, “Stay still – let me look”. But of course, it is easier said than done.
This exhibition features drawing from four animated films.
Specifically, from four cartoons:
HOTEL E, 1992
LIFE WITHOUT GABRIELLA FERRI, 2008
DIVERS IN THE RAIN, 2010
PILOTS ON THE WAY HOME, 2014

These films have a total of about 162,720 frames. Our exhibition has 50 images, 50 moments ripped out of the whole, which make up about 0.0307% of the total number of frames from these four films. Each individual image is 0.000614% of the total number of frames. To choose the best images for the exhibition from such an abundance of frames, one had to catch moments where one could say, “Stay still – let me look”. It wasn’t easy, but we did it! Of course, after such a marathon, there was no problem with the choice of a title for the exhibition.
