background of the project
FLUX is an experimental film - exploring the themes of belonging, displacement and distant memory through the visual language of fashion, scenography, sound design and post-production.
Clothing becomes a metaphor for transition and self-defense, symbolizing the layers that the human psyche builds to naviagate a world of uncertainty.
Set against a backdrop of shifting spaces and relationships, FLUX reflects on the repetitive nature of the human experience, where each transition brings both the possibility of belonging and the risk of alienation.
Blurring the boundaries between the inner world of emotions and the outer realities of social life, the film offers a meditative exploration of identity in FLUX.
idea of project
For my graduation project, I seek to synthesize the core conceptual threads that have informed my artistic practice to date. Rooted in an exploration of the human psyche, my work explores themes of memory, temporality, trauma, and the shifting boundaries between the conscious and unconscious - particularly as they materialize through desire.
The centerpiece of this project is a film that investigates the phenomenon of Escapism through an interdisciplinary lens - merging medical, psychological and cultural frameworks. It examines how memory, identity, and trauma can construct internalized alternative realities - spaces of retreat, resistance, or renewal. This inquiry is not merely academic; it is deeply personal. The film unfolds as an immersive, visually-driven narrative, anchored fragments that trace my own evolving relationship with Escapist tendencies.
Bridging research with experimental visual storytelling, the project operates at the intersection of theory and practice. It positions escapism as both a symptom and a strategy - an affective response to the pressures of experiences and a defining mode of engagement for a digitally-mediated generation. In a world saturated by curated digital personas, algorithmic overstimulation, and the relentless performance of self, the film questions the cost of our retreat from the “real.” It explores how technology enables new architectures of avoidance while simultaneously deepening our sense of disconnection.
Through a constellation of visual motifs, the film investigates how individuals construct rituals of detachment to navigate existential strain. Whether through digital consumption, online communities, immersive gaming or hyper-connectivity Escapism emerges as a multi-layered phenomenon - at once intimate and cultural, adaptive and symptomatic.
