Tabula Rasa
Sophie Lin's 'Tabula Rasa' is a short animation that leads an investigation into the complex relationship between our physical body and worldly experiences. The animation explores the validity of our physical body as the main form of identity through the concept of tattooing - a practice universally known to be permanent. It is this idea of permanence that Lin uses to highlight the fleeting and impermanent nature of human mortality.
