Moss Grew is an experimental short animation exploring the spaces between life and death—liminal and fertile for distortion and transformation. A house devoured by nature becomes a relic of human existence, with only the objects left behind serving as traces of life. The film delves into the relationship between humans and the objects they interact with, particularly as it pertains to our perception of home. Do these objects hold our memories and carry them into the future? What becomes of these stored memories when we are long gone?
Moss Grew playfully envisions a post-apocalyptic world where forgotten memories are revived in a cleansing, magical ritual.
