(Concept and Art, Animation, Original Score)
This collaborative animation is an ode to the cyclical rhythms of growth, decay, and renewal. Composed of 1,584 hand-drawn frames, one detailed concept drawing, and an original score, the work reflects the energy behind natural processes. Under the watchful gaze of the moon and its spirits, this piece celebrates birth, rebirth, and nature’s enduring cycles.
* Part of the "Revival" series, inspired by the ancient terrain of Bryce Canyon National Park and themes of ecological resilience and renewal. The work grew from memories of hiking its trails while pregnant with my second child, during a time of uncertainty about her growth. There among the amphitheaters, I witnessed weathered trees clinging to bare cliffs and stone, defying the arid terrain. Their perseverance became a source of hope for the Earth and my children.
