STILL-LIFE
The host decided to create an animation about what we missed the most during confinement - the freedom of movement, that of being close to the people we love. Still Life is a celebration of the beauty of movement and human closeness at a time when the world stood still, forced to stay apart.
The last few months have been tough. Like so many of my friends and colleagues I was put on the governments furlough scheme which meant that I suddenly had a lot of time on my hands and not a lot to do with it. So I decided to create an animation which focused on what I missed the most - the freedom to move, and be close to the people I love. Still Life is a celebration of the beauty of movement and human closeness at a time when the world stood still and we were forced to stay apart.
