Undersea
(2021)

Mixed-media Animation   April 2022  
44 seconds

Undersea is a 44 seconds animation that explored the sensuous experience images can bring to the audience. The work was a response to my trip to the Sea Life London Aquarium trip in the spring of 2022. I wanted to create an undersea simulation that replicates my aquarium experience. Using a series of abstract two-dimen- sional and three-dimensional shapes my aim was to evoke familiar experiences with unfamiliar objects.
