Synopsis
Riley desperately wants to help his friends that live in the ocean, but massive piles of swirling trash are endlessly arriving.
Artist Statement
I include nature as part of my identity and believe that all living things are interconnected. What we do to the planet and its living creatures comes back to us. My works often explore the varying relationships between nature and creatures, including in this film. Overflow addresses the plastic pollution crisis occurring around the world, reminding us that the ocean is suffering. I chose to use digital 2D animation to illustrate the dream-like world destroyed by pollution. I invite the viewer to experience the contrast of our world as it existed before, and the possibility of that world after devastating global environmental problems take over.
