A string of experimental ‘moving images’ spanning across to interpret and deconstruct what we perceive as ‘Ideal Reflections’, through the unique relationship of image and sound.

Once upon a time in a faraway land, a deadly stereotype infested the kingdom of childhood.

As time passed, the plague further found its way into children’s books, contributing to fragmented inclusivity and an absence of diversity. ‘It’s Shadism’, one Photon whispered to another as the cognitive psychology of children was exploited again.

Many years later, two artists immersed themselves into the creation of an illustrative re-telling to present an alternate reality – One that questions the systemic issue of the practice of shadism.

The result is a gripping intersection of art and politics.

The story of Gollieth - He, who is denied his own reflection, follows his echo of revolt and stumbles upon a parallel realm where all photons are considered equal.

The End.
