Un Souririe by Aurora Gasull  Auroral Gasull has been working in Visual Music for the last 10 years. Her latest work in ‘ Un Souririe ’ (A Smile) with music of Olivier Messiaen. This is a very beautiful animation, that has many visual worlds presentet to us akin to phrases in music, in which a visual world explores the music world and changes and transforms. Some very evocative scenes, for example, a really lovely expansive scene of colours shapes that work as a whole but which expand and contract into stretched or compressed shapes - lovely motion experiences. http://www.aurora.cat/auroraunsourire/ From biography on her website 'Born in Barcelona, cellist and member of a number of chamber groups up to 1990, she first approaches visual arts through photography, drawing and painting.

The evening came to a clo...
