Project Brief



Title

How little things grow
:Exploring narrative potential of abstract imagery.

Four picture book stories told through various visual elements: shape, movement, texture and color. Each story is based on the theme of growth and is connected by a central character.




Description

1

It is a message of support about 'being honest about one's desire through life', not being swept away by majority and so called 'the stan- dard'. At the same time, it is a story about being oneself in journey of following one's own desire.

A story of a square who longs to be a circle after witnessing it bouncing away. At first, it tries to imitate the circle. But after several trials, it gradually finds its own way of flying - the square folds itself as an aeroplane and finally flies up to the sky. It has found freedom in being oneself.

When we encounter a new world, there exist fear as well as flutter of excitement. At that time, we go back to a child - small and vulnerable being. Sometimes, that fear in mind makes us harder to percept the world properly. However, everyone has something that gives them love and comfort. It could be family or friends, God or nature for someone, or such a small object for some other. Whatever that is, we recovers from that, and then we are able to see the world as it is, in love.

A story of a yellow circle entering the new world of black and white which is both big and frightening. It begins to lose its shape and colour as it is worn out in the world. But after it meets a big warm Yellow down the hole, the circle recovers, gaining back its original shape and colour. Then when the little circle returns to the new world again, it finds the world to have been actually colourful and friendly.

Everyone has their own characteristic. Although it is just a quality neither good nor bad, it could be pros or cons depending on the context where it belongs. Sometimes, you find yourself as a totally stranger or misfit. But do not feel lonely even though you are creaking some- where. Because you will find the right place for you, unless you don't stop your journey to find it.

The journey of a triangle on its continuous attempts to fit in somewhere. It wanted to be friends with others, but unintentionally kept hurting them through the process. It felt lonely and drifted for a while. One day, it happened to meet a little circle and a little square who were in trouble and it helped them by using its sharp point, which once hurt others before. Finally, it knows where it should be.

We laugh more, get hurt more, and grow the most when we are together.

A story of a square, a circle, and a triangle. All the characters from previous books come together and start their adventure in new, bizarre world. Whenever they meet obstacles, they solve them by being a good team.
