This animator elevates memory into dusty, eerie vignettes

"I don't trust my imagination very much, so I often create works based on things I've actually experienced," says Hewa. "I want to animate those indescribable states where all sorts of emotions get mixed up together." In these micro-animations (that do well on social media, both because of their quick runtimes and windows into varyingly haunted and serene worlds), Hewa animates women dreaming of other realities, dinner guests locked into a perpetual state of laughing and empty streets lined with crooked houses.
