Installation view

Drawing is a basic tool of self expression that I use for translating into animation. This animation is from outcomes of many observational accounts of female identity I attempt to portray differently. Strange and naive in appearance, I want to capture small gestures and movements to communicate a person who possibly never feels 'quite at home'. Negative space creates atmospheric and theatrical elements.
