BORBOLETA
main project for semester project "Present Future"Animation, 2020
BORBOLETA is an animated story of a person trapped in the role of a portrait. The journey of a feminine body that starting to relate again to its identity as it frees itself from the spectator’s gaze. The narrative parallels the metamorphosis of a butterfly as a symbol for the transformation happening in confinement. In the end, a sci-fi twist raises the questions: Is there really a possibility of freedom when the revolution happens only on an individual level? Can anybody experience a sense of freedom or even dream about it?
