Our video explores connection, self-awareness, and disconnection in modern life. Walking through forests and cities with blue plastic bags over our heads, we symbolize barriers between ourselves, others, and the world. The bags block our senses, contrasting sharply with the natural surroundings, highlighting how technology connects us but often leaves us disconnected from our true selves. Through this project, we ask: How often do distractions keep us from fully living? What does it take to reconnect? It’s a call to reflect, spark dialogue, and rediscover presence in our lives.
