Emotions can amplify excitement and anticipation, but they can also expose vulnerability in ways that feel almost cruel—moments that make one wish the truth had simply been spoken aloud. Rather than depicting emotions directly, the work visualizes scenes and situations where feelings surface indirectly, through gestures, atmospheres, and visual metaphors.
The title SIMILE reflects this approach. Like a figure of speech that explains one thing through another, the animation treats emotion as something that is always shown through displacement—never stated, but unmistakably present. Each scene functions as a visual comparison, translating internal states into external forms. By rendering these emotional moments in 3D space, the work emphasizes distance and interpretation, allowing viewers to project their own experiences onto the scenes. SIMILE does not attempt to clarify emotion; instead, it lingers in its ambiguity, highlighting the quiet tension between what is felt, what is hidden, and what is inevitably seen.
