Video: Alexandra Levasseur’s “Playing With Fire”

We were recently introduced to Alexandra Levasseur's lush, mixed-media artworks that explore the artist's shifting moods in response to the brutal weather changes in her native Montreal. The French-Canadian artist recently directed a poetic animation titled "Playing with Fire" that puts the dreamlike qualities of her artwork into motion. The short film is somewhere between narrative and abstract, placing us into a fantastical realm of lonely, tragic beauties. Take a look at the animation and some accompanying artworks after the jump!
