Pass:on

If some of us choose to express it and some of us don’t, the creative energy we call passion lives in all of us. This document explores expressions of passion, through artists who made the choice to live with and for this energy.

8 artists were filmed independently:

4 painters who did not know each other’s work improvised a visual representation of their passion on 2m of an 8x1,5m fresco; while the crew captured the artists’ body expressions during the creative process.
4 musicians who did not know each other were asked to improvise a musical expression of their passion, playing around an identical beat and harmonic range they chose as the production progressed; eventually creating an original piece of music.

As well as a study of the expression of individual passion, this film explores the potential of experimental collaborative creative processes. None of the people involved knew what the outcome would be.
