Director Biography - Yifan YU

Born in 2000.
Passionate about East Asian Art and fiction writing.
For me, the animation I create is a reflection of what the world in this day and age projects onto me. Through animation, the marks it left on me become the messages I want to express, and bit by bit, they become my world.
I wish to never stop speaking out my heart.
