Push & Pull
Push & Pull is an animated short film exploring themes of the invisible, stillness, and the environment. Nature is represented by a nearly invisible being, performed by a dancer, who remains constant and unchanging. Characters made of paper interact with the being throughout the non-narrative story, symbolizing the cyclical passage of time. Together, they embody the push-and-pull relationship we share with nature amidst the busyness of life.
