In the animation a small creature leaves the group and begins to change. Its familiar world disappears, its body turns dark, and wings emerge . What first seemed harmless becomes something threatening. I wanted to play with the idea that destruction does not always arrive in an obvious form. Sometimes it grows quietly inside something ordinary until it finally reveals itself. This animation is part of They Live, a collection in which I bring characters from my paintings to life. It was animated by hand, without AI.
