Un-stilling life (if there is such a thing, this is it)
A still life painting by Ambrosius Bosschaert the Elder
(1573--1621) is brought as close to real life as you could possibly imagine. Artists Rob and Nick Carter with visual effects studio MPC have dedicated 2 years to creating a 3 hour animation of a Dutch golden age masterpiece. Once frozen in time, Bosschaert's oil painted flowers now open and close, the sky transitions from dawn to dusk and the bees, snails and butterflies buzz, flutter and creep. It's a really beautiful and extraordinary thing to see.
