Brought to life in a bare workshop, fragile clay figures long for more than simply existing, and once their sculptor leaves them behind, they must find a way to belong.

Tactile clay animation and pixilation give eerie, fragile life to sculptures questioning the hands that made them.

Fragile clay Sculptures come to life in a bare workshop, craving more than just existence. When their Sculptor abandons them, they must discover the power of belonging.
