International Competition 3

Misfolding

Synopsis

Misfolding means ‘to fold into an incorrect three-dimensional shape that is typically nonfunctional’. These animations are based on pencil drawings I made just before going to sleep. As I dozed off, with them hanging around my bed, the sheets seemed to swallow me.
