‘Falling into Jupiter’

‘Falling into Jupiter’ is a 38 minute work about the aspiration for human and extra terrestrial contact. Inspiration from scifi movies such as Alien, Arrival & Close Encounters of the Third Kind, imagery in both visual and costume design highlight what it means to be human, the beauty of humanity and the intrigue to find something other than ourselves.
