Veiled Mist

October 2024

Veiled Mist explores the emotional embodiment of excessive compromise, breaking limitations to seek alternative mediums for more affluent expression. This project highlights the tension between conformity and self-fulfillment, inspiring individuals to rediscover lost desires, reignite inner passion, and break free from their own compromises.

 

I created four digital scenes in Blender to illustrate this transformation and collaborated with a dancer to showcase emotional movement, breaking traditional fashion boundaries to better convey the story and immerse the audience. Each element and the progression in the video evolved into an expression that challenges tradition, enhancing storytelling and fully immersing the audience.

Breaking traditional fashion boundaries to better convey the story

Fashion design often involves constraints and limitations, with restricted mediums that can lead to compromises in the creative process. Seeking alternative mediums for expression has become my goal, as I aim to explore more diverse and enriched forms of creativity. This drive to break free from compromise inspired me to embark on this project.

EXHIBITION DESIGN

INSPIRATION & BACKGROUND

Excessive compromise
Drifting with the tide, we often feel detached from beauty and passion, like NPCs in a game—mere supporting characters in life.

This exploration examines the tension between compromise and self-fulfillment, questioning how societal demands suppress our dreams and lead to numbness or disconnection.

Lost Self-Value - lead to burnout and numbness, eroding self-worth and suppressing personal dreams.

RESEARCH

Cognitive Dissonance Theory:
Leon Festinger’s theory explains how individuals rationalize conflicts between actions and beliefs. Overcompromising often results in forgetting original aspirations.
How can we, overly compromised to societal norms, rediscover lost desires and reignite our passion?
The aim is to recognize this numbness and reignite lost passion.

CONCEPT

Explores the emotional toll of excessive compromise, where individuals feel like secondary characters in a larger narrative (or NPCs in a game). Reveals how societal demands suppress passions, leading to burnout and loss of self-worth. Highlights the tension between conformity and self-fulfillment, inspiring individuals to rediscover lost desires and reignite inner passion.
