dissociative blue

00:01:35 Cyanotype Animation, 2023

“Dissociative Blue” uses 2D animation and cyanotype (an alternative photographic printing process) to explore the cycles we often find ourselves stuck in. Time slips by as we run in circles. The details change and blur, but our internal narrative repeats. Can we ever move forward if we remain the same? Or does part of us need to die so that we can see the way? This short film produced by 3 queer and neurodiverse artists sparks internal reflection from the viewer.
