Character Development
2024 - Present


Body Armature


(work in progress)




(Work in progress)

The character study series explores the intersection of human appearances across digital and physical realms, challenge our perceptions of identity and embodiment. Inspired by Bjork, Tobias Glemmler and various makeup arists and costume designers, I aim to transcend traditional notions of makeup, body costume, that can be presented in different genders and species.

As part of the character development, I am working with Blender, Unreal Engine, and Move AI for motion capture. This research feeds into my digital filmmaking practice, allowing me to develop a nuanced understanding of our relationship with both physical and digital bodies. The project present my interest in advocating for women futurist, feminism, focusing on the development of a female cyborg characters.  









The research and design process also explore the idea that considers everything as living creatures which extend beyond human forms. The iteration involves AI generative images then modelling forms and 3D animation and imagined creatures, utilising biomorphic topologies as process to develop otherworldly micro-organism creatures.
