Production design concept for a short film based on the manuscript Sorgen. The inspiration for the design is the tactility of human expression and the sense of connection it can bring to the viewer of a painting. This project is an experiment of how paintings can be used in a live-action universe to bring a sense of beauty into understanding the process of grief.
