‘Night Light’ Oct 12- May 13 A five minute stop-motion animated film. A collaborative project with Elizabeth Johnson. Arabella’s new home is surrounded by a dark and mysterious forest. In the middle of the night the moon shines down and draws her curiousity out into the woods. In it’s darkest depths she finds herself in great peril where only a peculiar stranger bears the light that can help Arabella overcome the dark. But even the moon has a dark side.
