This work is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity signed and dated by the artist 'Bill Viola 17 March 2001'.
"The primary aim of Anima as a creative exploration was to push the video medium as far as technically possible to turn active emotion into near stillness. Like the movement of the hands of a clock or the life of a natural rock formation, there are aspects of life that evolve more slowly than human perception can register. The constancy of change was a central idea circulating through the production of this artwork. Emotional states, which are generally considered rather fleeting aspects of human life, are here slowed to the pace of nature time. (...)
The effect of knowing that visible change is occurring without being able to actually identify the moments of change visually is a haunting mental realization. Anima transforms a perceptual occurrence into a conceptual event."
