In the beautifully animated “Still Life” by the very talented artist Mike Pelletier, various fruits, vegetables and breads amazingly deflate, leaving the skin in a droopy pile on the ground, while others temporarily re-inflate at various intervals in an odd dance of corporeal remains. Pelletier refers to this process as “Nature Morte” and used a soundtrack by Dylan Galletly to further express the theme.
