THE MEDIUM IS PART OF THE EXPERIMENT

Flat artwork.
A different sense of space.

These scenes combine painted layers and cutouts with parallax, WebGL landscapes, camera choreography and music. “2.5D” describes the feel: illustrated worlds you can move through, not just videos you watch.

They are artistic interpretations, not historical or scientific reconstructions. Each scene keeps its own context and credits. Detailed artwork loads when you enter that scene, not while you browse this gallery.
