My Favourite On(c)e

Project overview

My Favourite On(c)e began with a personal observation: each new favourite action figure slowly replaces the one that used to sit closest on the desk. The project turns that familiar cycle into a letter to the toys that once meant everything.

The story is carried by the environment rather than dialogue. Shifts in lighting, composition, weather, props and seasons communicate nostalgia, growing up and the quiet experience of being replaced.
