I’m Jan Kamensky and I’m making short animated films, because I'm convinced that it's important to see what happens if we transform car-dominated streets into human-friendly places. My utopian animations present visual arguments for change. With my utopias, I want to open a window onto our opportunities and make possibilities visible. The playful visualisations are meant to awaken joy and confidence in our common future in harmony with the environment.
The utopian approach of my animations has a decisive function: after the viewers visited the utopia, they return to reality with a sharpened view. This is an invitation to reflect on our reality - and to hold a mirror up to society. The expansion of consciousness is in the foreground, not so much the feasibility of my visions. Although I would certainly be happy about the implementation!
I have been making my animations since 2020. They are published in social media and thus reach around the globe. And they do exactly what I want them to do: inspire change. I believe in the power of images.
There’s a lot to do: all over the world there are streets that are suitable for transformation, places that are worth changing. Let me know if you have ideas and I look forward to meeting you!
By the way, I also do commissioned work.
