Student Narrative

Under the Feathers begins with a Victorian-style portrait and unfolds, through its hand-drawn and hand-cut tunnel-book structure, a scene where a swan family intertwines with lush botanical forms. The branch-like paper layers create a sense of depth, while the eye elements blend the eerie with the dreamlike and guide viewers into the hidden and gentle world beneath the feathers.
