Moments of Being

‘Doing nothing is better than being busy doing nothing.’

-Lao Tzu 

We spend our lives running around, ‘doing,’ trying to be as productive as possible, afraid of wasting time, desperate to make every second count, convinced that if we stop for a moment, if we’re ‘doing nothing’ then we’ve somehow failed. But nothing is something - as Winnie the Pooh says, ‘doing nothing often leads to the very best of something.’ We all need to take a moment, to rest or reset, away from the pressures of reality.

Through this project I wanted to celebrate some of these moments, playing with the ways that slow moving animations can create a space to slow down, recreating a sense of just ‘being.’
