Art & Design Festival
This animated short reflects my journey as a creative individual—driven by constant practice, fueled by a pursuit of perfection, and powered by a mind that often feels like an engine pushed to its limits. For a long time, I found myself caught in a cycle of comparison and competition, measuring my progress against others rather than understanding my own path.
In the film, this relentless momentum eventually leads to breakdown—a symbolic wreckage that becomes a turning point. It is only in that moment of collapse that clarity emerges: each person follows a unique creative trajectory, and genuine growth comes from embracing the process rather than racing through it. I realized that happiness lies in showing up every day, accepting the imperfections, and finding meaning in steady, honest progress.
This animated short was later showcased at Bapxao.oi SS2 in 2023 a virtual art and design festival featuring works that explore similar themes.
