Clip description
A Tasmanian tiger paces inside its caged enclosure, then is seen in its native environment and in suburbia. In voice-over, people recount their sightings of the animal.
Curator’s notes
The rich, vividly coloured imagery in this clip features a combination of traditional 2D animation techniques and mixed media: coloured rotoscoped images and photographs, together with hand-drawn and painted images. The caged tiger assumes many forms and colours as it returns to the freedom of its native habitat, the Tasmanian bush. The haunting soundscape and voice-overs in this clip have a forlorn quality about them, adding to the sombre mood and imagery.
