Notes from Suha, our art editor: “With our theme being “Shock and Awe”, Oral Fixation stood out as an unexpected exploration of the familiar and the unsettling. Through her use of light and color, Sofia transforms close-ups of the mouth into something really almost surreal. I was drawn to how it led to me confront an intimate part of the body in a new way!”

Notes from Sofia, the video’s creator: “My piece is mostly an exploration of aesthetics. The way unnatural colours can be unsettling. And focusing on the same area to really highlight that. It really is mostly a study on color.”
