REIMAGINING

REIMAGINING is an experimental approach to the portrayal of homesickness and the act of reimagining home. As an Andean immigrant, I have struggled to adapt and find a community in the USA. My short film, "Reimagining" is created with intentional focus on the abstraction and absorption of emotions through visual metaphors. In terms of aesthetics, I put emphasis on tones and the use of color palettes to enhance a melancholy effect. I showcase different Peruvian aspects of my culture that I miss and try to recreate––sometimes without success.
