A girl found herself strained by utilitarian values and expectations around her. Wondering if there is other purposes, she discovers a strange plant that from a littered bottle. They entangled in an adventure that changes how she views the world.
We tell our story through shared childhood memories and reflect on how we chose the path of becoming artists. Growing up in environments that prioritized stability creativity often felt secondary. But, through doubt and exploration, we gradually come to understand that creativity is something innate, a force that naturally sprouts from both body and mind. Through clashing shapes and colors, the visual language mirrors become a guide, leading us back to imagine and grow into ourselves.
