Wings of a ButterFly

I created an animated short about a butterfly who desperately wants to alter themself in order to resemble other people they finds attractive. Finally, they understood that they looked better when they were being themselves. While creating this animation, I thought about how the transformation of a caterpillar into a butterfly is similar to that of a child going through puberty. Often, we compare our own transformations to those of others, hoping to look like them, without realizing that each person's body is different and unique in its own way.

My life is impacted by creativity because it enables me to communicate in ways other than voice. I can communicate who I am and what's on my mind in a way that others find enjoyable and relatable.
