Marionet Digital‘s first video in 2024 is based on the theme of Bipolar Disorder, a mental illness that affects between 3 and 5% of people worldwide and is characterised by alternating moods that vary between extremes of depression and euphoria. In this video we explore the idea of how an event can provoke different reactions depending on a person’s state of mind.
Marionet Digital aims to be a space for artistic expression, created in formats designed for digital communication. The set of four works produced so far, designed for this context, centres on themes from the Health Sciences. The latest (“Tripolar”) is about bipolar disorder, created following the show “Oxymoron, between Solstices and Equinoxes“, produced by Marionet.
