Genesis — Motion Experiment

Genesis is a short cinematic exploration of growth, limitation, and transformation. It follows the arc of an idea—how it forms, evolves, hits a wall, and then reshapes into something stronger.
Inspired by the structure of the Schizophyllum commune mushroom, the piece blends organic forms with precise motion. The mushroom’s natural symmetry became a metaphor for breakthrough — wings unfolding, potential taking flight.
It’s about that moment when constraint doesn’t end the process, but redirects it into something bolder.
