I am a 3rd year international student at OCAD University, in the Experimental Animation Program. But most of all, I am an artist who loves creating and telling stories that explore human emotions, experiences and connections.
DAYDREAM
Animation, 1080px, 2026
Before the conception of this work, I was in a state of exhaustion and pressure from all the tasks I needed to do. I was juggling both my personal life, school life, and work life, trying to succeed in all of them. Then, on top of everything else. I was assigned to make a short film. I was burnt out and completely dry of ideas.
When I would shut down to rest, all I could think about was the image of me floating away into the skies, away from all my responsibilities. Free, as a bird, without worrying about the ticking clock that announced the passage of time and deadlines. And then it hit me; what if I make a film about that daydream!
This short film has become a permanent record of my conflicting feelings about work, duty, exhaustion, making me question how I lived, was living, and will want to live life in the future.
