Title:


    Kenopsia

Conference:



Description:


    Kenopsia follows a man confronting his past and the weight of his mistakes, expressed through two contrasting artistic worlds. Reality is rendered in a dimensional, semi-painted 3D style, while haunting visions take on a painterly, 2D brushed aesthetic. This contrast emphasizes the tension between life as it is and the inner world that torments him.
    Central to these visions is the raven, a symbolic representation of the protagonist’s inner demons. Confined to this painterly realm, it intensifies the emotional impact and anchors the audience in the psychological dimension of the story.
    By merging two different visual styles, Kenopsia explores memory, guilt, and imagination through an hybrid approach to storytelling.
