Blessed Are Those Who Are Angry
Animated installation.
Role: Creative Director, Animator Date: (Fall 2024) An experiential animation installation that blurs the line between experimental cinema and community health. Born from a personal journey in grief, the project uses hand-drawn animation techniques as a mental grounding mechanism to deconstruct the universal reactions to anger, and to construct new spaces between personal and collective experiences. This project is supported in part by public funds from the 2024 Queens Arts Fund, a re-grant program supported by New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council and administered by New York Foundation for the Arts. |
