Little Red Boots
Artists Notes: Do you remember the joy of wearing your favourite shoes as a child? In this animation, I revisit my childhood memories of my beloved red boots and their adventures. ”I was inspired by my own childhood experience of wearing red boots that made me feel happy and adventurous. I wanted to reconnect with that feeling.” Watch as they escape from a dusty box and splash into a puddle of fun!
