    Fear is part of our identity, it is our everyday life and we experience it in different ways. We grow up with it, and over time we overcome or suppress it. However, it is always present, transforms itself into something else, follows our steps, and enters our dreams. It is said that fear has big eyes, they grow where we meet the unknown and then, to some aspects of reality, such as time, we give unrealistic proportions. Only when the fear is overcome, the eyes shrink and the picture becomes clearer.

    This animation was created in April 2007 using a program called Abrosoft Fantamorph. The cost at the time was 30 US dollars. My thought at the time was rather than creating simple humorous morphs, that were common at the time, why not instead create an artistic film that loops multiple animations together and tells the story of art over time.
