Taking the similarity of gestures between cooking and playing instruments as a starting point of the project for sensory associations, Boiling Point presents a lightbox and artistic short film based on the systems and pitfalls in the kitchen using audio and visuals as mediums to convey a message highlighting the contrast between gentleness and violence, softness and strength in gestures visually and audibly.
