An experience of filipino home and nostalgia, well reflected in a 4d image; miniature art style. The slick work of Sir Mark Baguio (our local Artist) is very new yet familiar to us growing up in the Philippines. The work will easily make you so drown to it’s interesting approach and it’s message. It’s 4d miniature “room form” art, is very calming to watch and stare at.
Given with it’s minimal movement, right choice of “old school” color-palette and mellow music playing at the background of his work. All well played, builds the whole scene telling us a story and happens to make you relate to the mood inside the 4d boxed-room.
Also the fact that it is really cute, with the miniature view of what our Filipino household looks like.
It’s like our project of building a small house using illustration board during our fourth grade, but this is different, it is more perspective corrected reflected in 4d image, well put together using rendering tools: cinema 4d, redshift, adobe after effects, adobe Photoshop. But both project has the same goal, it is to build the feeling of our home.
The deep inspiration behind his works took when 11 years ago, 2009, the Artist, unfortunately, happened to be one of the families who’ve been affected by Typhoon Ondoy, one of the strongest typhoon to hit the Philippines. Sir. Mark Baguio and his family during that time lost everything, even not saving pieces of pictures from their home.
Can you imagine losing all the pictures reconnecting you to remind you what your home felt like?
Growing up, facing stressful events, with a strong felt of longing for his good old days and just wanting to look at the pictures to make him feel okay again. Knowing what he lose is when he said his goal in life started to be found; it is to retrieve the memories he had and also that’s where his Talent was created.
While browsing youtube the artist said he was inspired by a short film he happens to watch, titled “Meet Meline: The 3D animated short film” He researched about it and knew that the film was just created by two Artist. He was moved with their work and he pursue to study Animation.
The big turning point of Sir Mark Baguio is having full of hope to bring back the simple good life he had, he eagerly study Animation as a way for him to bring it back, with the right tools and just the image in his mind of what the places looks like, he created a master piece he will never will have to lose again, Their childhood home and his talent.
