CAPTURED BY SAFETY #1 by Frank Willems.

Year: 2024
Size: 53x57cm
Materials: Acrylic, marker on reused wood, plexiglass

CAPTURED BY SAFETY is a series of artworks that together form a small stop-motion animation. In this sequence, a mouse moves up and down through the frame, while a cat follows it with its eyes and moves its tail.

The mouse enters the frame through the skirting board. Within this space, it is safe, shielded from the dangers outside the frame. At the same time, it is also trapped, confined within its supposed protection. This tension between safety and restriction reflects a feeling that many people can relate to, especially those who struggle with anxiety.

The artwork explores the dynamic between threat and refuge, inviting the viewer to reflect on the balance between protection and confinement in everyday life.
