Scher uses lights, abstractions and visual effects paired with music to create short films, maybe more aptly described as animated paintings, as they are made from artwork in which the images change to trigger responses within the viewer’s mind. He uses his paintings and collages by overlapping the colours and textures to seem as if they are in fact “moving” in a hypnotic fashion. Scher wants his viewers to create their own stories from the visuals he provides. Some of his films seek to create a feeling of dreaming and a connection to subconscious mind.

This video shows Marthijn de Groot at work on his amazing 400 metre long one-man mural. The paintings (200 canvasses of 200 cm x 120 cm) were created in Holland during Rembrandt's 400 anniversary year and show De Groot's expression and appreciation of and on Rembrandt's life and work. Almost all the paintings were sold on the spot and part of the revenue went to a social project for young adults in the suburbs of Amsterdam. More than 30.000 spectators witnessed this amazing event.
