“In a dying universe, an aloof master comes across a religious child who has been revered as a goddess by her people.”

“The master serves the universe, to ensure that it can die smoothly, whereas the child, who has become his pupil, is filled with boundless hope of restoring the world to its original state. Could the two characters, from drastically different backgrounds, coexist, or even more so, learn from each other?”

Pupillary is the IP project I had the liberty to create during my last semester in The One Academy. For this project, I was deeply moved and inspired by Rose-Lynn Fisher’s microscopic photography series - ““The Topography of Tears”“, which explored the beautiful crystalised structures of tears under the microscope. I thought to myself, “What if there were a universe within our tears?” after seeing the microscopic images, which resembled the branches that formed the cosmic web all around us. Hence, the world of Pupillary was born.
