Formation

This project explores something that is always around me and constantly in my mind, yet remains invisible. It aims to visually express the quiet alchemy of creation, where fragments of thought gather, merge, and slowly transform into a complete idea.

I used rough textures to represent the friction I feel inside my brain, and irregular shapes to reflect the randomness of my thoughts. Purple and reflective tones were chosen to capture the utopian and fantasy-like nature of my ideas, while also expressing the dark, safe, and mysterious feeling I associate with looking into my own mind. Small clusters of ideas gradually build, connect, and grow into a final form, allowing the creative process itself to be revealed through the project.

Process:

The sound design supports the dreamy and mysterious atmosphere of the piece, while also carrying a subtle sense of hopefulness. I also edited sound effects to emphasize the roughness of textures as they grow, collide, evolve.
