Synopsis: Born as an academic exercise, this scene stages the artist’s loving obsession with his work. The narrative focuses on physical symbiosis: the protagonist cannot separate from his creation even in sleep.

Through the nightmare of fire, which threatens to destroy everything, I wanted to visualize every creator’s greatest fear. The sigh of relief upon waking to find the work intact emphasizes that for an artist the creation is not a mere object, but a vital extension of himself to be protected at all costs.
