When I'm far from myself

Thamiris Carvalho is a Brazilian director who left her studies in Physics to pursue a career in Art Direction at the Escuela Nacional de Experimentación y Realización Cinematográfica (ENERC), a school of the Instituto Nacional de Cinema e Artes Audiovisuais (INCAA) in Argentina. In her stop motion work, Thamiris adopts a deliberately rustic approach, challenging the pursuit of perfect fluidity in conventional animation. Instead, she focuses on materiality and textures, celebrating the beauty of imperfections and errors as essential elements of her visual narrative
