Conundrum

Video Mapping Series

Concept Design, Motion Graphics

This concept design envisions a self-powered, automated, and sustainable installation that integrates sculpture, video mapping, and mixed media in remote or arid locations, such as deserts or no-man’s lands.

Creative Brief

These vibrant and playful motion graphics videos were created for projection mapping, a concept design aimed at elevating a “total work of art” or “Gesamtkunstwerk” that blends and complements sculptures and other media in the installation.

The visuals demonstrate how this installation can be placed in remote locations, showcasing its ability to blend seamlessly with harsh environments or isolated landscapes.

Approach

This project uses After Effects to bring the theme of “total work of art” to life, using vibrant and dynamic visuals to make the landscape more engaging. The goal is to capture the audience’s attention and create a spontaneous connection as they approach the installation.

The motion graphics largely reimagine eyeballs trapped within the installation, not only showcasing one of Sakarit’s favorite elements and design signatures but also stimulating dry or harsh landscapes—such as deserts, snow-covered mountains, or even the storm of Jupiter’s Great Red Spot—in electrifying ways.

Impact & Results

While most of the artwork in this project consists of digital mock-ups, it’s important to imagine how the overall concept would come to life in the real world. This design represents Sakarit’s dream of creating a self-powered, automated, and sustainable installation in a remote location, although the visuals do not explain how these systems would function.

Nonetheless, this is the first step in visualizing speculative design, using available tools to envision something beyond graphic design. It aims to elevate graphic design by blending all design disciplines into a more “total work of art.”
