You Should See Me in a Crown

This animated short adapts Billie Eilish's "you should see me in a crown," presenting a visually striking experience rooted in Takashi Murakami’s signature aesthetic. The piece unfolds within a dreamlike, surreal landscape populated by vibrant, unsettling imagery reminiscent of Japanese pop art and traditional folklore. It centers around themes of power, perception, and the multifaceted nature of self-representation.

The animation utilizes fluid, almost hypnotic movement to explore the protagonist's internal world, blending beauty with a subtle undercurrent of unease. Rather than a straightforward narrative, it offers a sensory exploration of the song’s emotional core—a meditation on confidence, vulnerability, and the carefully constructed personas we present to others. Viewers are invited into a uniquely stylized world where familiar forms are twisted and reimagined, prompting reflection on the complexities of identity.
