Through this film I want to explore how viewing creation as a frustrating dilemma of “good” and “bad” can choke passion. I propose a more empathetic outlook: one that is less about outcome and more about the joy, the memories, each moment of the process. When the pleasure of creating begins to die out, going back to the root of why we started helps us to move forward with a more compassionate mindset. This is my story as an artist, and a story shared among many others.
