Director Statement

– ‘No man ever steps in the same river twice. As it’s not the same river, and he’s not the same man.’ (Heraklit)

Created with acrylic paints, this animation explores the idea of time and movement in animation. As we believe, only through change and movement, we can perceive time. In animation, this relationship is deepened as only through change time and movement, can exist, with a change happening frame by frame.
