Galaxia

Important painter under ceausescu regime, Sabin Balasa remains interesting grace to his artistic style, in oniric manner.

His films are just use , in animated waz, of his so familiar paintings. Galaxia , reminding old Romanian fairz tales offers a chain of metamorphosis , reminding the birth of world, the apparition of human been, the transformation of nature, the answer to dangers and the continuu change of univers in a sort of poetic metempsichosis.

Sure, for a Romanian viewer, nothing real new. But nice, pleasant with feeling of childhood around a fairz taller or for a sort of time travel.

Galaxy-another painting animation by Sabin Balasa-presents his signature style of cosmic romanticism more clearly than in some of his other works. The familiar nude human figures take center stage, emphasizing humanity's essence as living beings that grow and develop beneath the vast cosmic umbrella. The cosmic imagery is particularly striking here, which is unsurprising given the short film's title. Interestingly, the film also weaves in metaphysical themes from other ancient cultures; for instance, I interpret the bird as resembling Horus from ancient Egypt. Overall, the work feels like a symbolic art installation exploring humanity's growth as both a physical and metaphysical part of the cosmos.
