Traveling Through Brush and Ink
Synopsis
A piece of food in the beak of a bird becomes a man traveling through the landscapes of four important paintings from China's art history. Being a creature that has been created from colour and form he begins to take on any shape, turns from being a man to being a bird to being a tree. Traveling has a different meaning if you think of it in an animation context: It is not so much moving from here to there but rather about becoming one thing and then another.
