Immersion in peace
is a visual narrative about my autistic son—his movement, exploration, and unique way of experiencing the world. His run through the forest is more than just play; it becomes a language of its own, a strategy for navigating sensory overload, and a search for equilibrium in a world that often feels overwhelming.
The film explores themes of freedom and escape, but also solitude and the delicate relationship between sensitivity and the surrounding environment. It captures fleeting moments in which nature serves as both a refuge and a space of confrontation—offering solace yet challenging his perception of safety and comfort.
Created using the cyanotype technique, the film merges traditional photographic processes with animation, giving the imagery a distinct, almost ethereal quality. This interplay of light and shadow reflects the impermanence of emotions and the intensity of sensory experiences, preserving them in a form that is as fragile as it is profound.
