動畫概念是威廉創作思考中相當重要的要素，在「素描投影」展間中所展出的五部動畫及手稿，大量運用炭粉繪製、抹除後再繪製的技法製作逐格動畫，在畫面中透露影格的前後關係，作畫痕跡及因紙張摩擦而產生的紙屑也保留在動畫裡。威廉在創作中不停展示對於過程及空間關係的重視，威廉的創作就如一個波動的世界，它是一種緩慢的動態，沒有東西是靜態。

手繪動畫專業的莊禾在工作坊及隨到隨畫區將逐格動畫的基本原則拆解，群眾可以在描圖紙上自由多人共創，隨著描圖紙上畫作的累積，在繪畫時被前一個人影響，也讓自己的繪畫影響下一個人，是主要傳達的概念。透過工作坊的引導，可以看到自己一開始的繪畫到別人手中，影響著他人循著筆跡思考往前推移，經過不同的詮釋與想像，最後呈現互相影響的關係與過程。

Animation plays a crucial role in William Kentridge’s artistic thinking. In the gallery Drawings for Projection, five animated films and related drawings are presented, created through a frame-by-frame animation process that repeatedly employs charcoal drawing, erasing, and redrawing. The works reveal the temporal relationships between frames, while traces of drawing gestures and even paper debris produced through friction are intentionally preserved within the animation. Through this process, Kentridge continuously foregrounds the importance of process and spatial relationships. His work unfolds as a fluctuating world—a slow-moving dynamic in which nothing remains static.
Led by hand-drawn animation specialist CHUANG Ho, the workshop and the drop-in drawing area break down the basic principles of frame-by-frame animation and translate them into a collective, participatory experience. Participants are invited to draw collaboratively on tracing paper, where each drawing is influenced by the previous one and, in turn, shapes the next. Through guided activities, participants can observe how their initial drawings are transformed in the hands of others, how lines of thought progress through shared marks, and how multiple interpretations and imaginations accumulate—ultimately revealing a process of mutual influence and continuous becoming.
