Life Untethered (2021)
3D Animation, 6m50s
‘Life Untethered’ was made as a response to the uncertainty we felt through the global pandemic, a state of flux. Through the use of 3D animation and virtual physics, Phelan explores a zero gravity environment in which two bodies float in space, searching, seeking to connect. Throughout the piece, the two bodies remain out of reach. The soundscape of this piece accentuates its glitches as well as its fluidity, encouraging the viewer towards immersion in this virtual world.
