Yarlung | Kunsang Kyirong

About:

Yarlung is about Three children who face challenges in their Tibetan village of Tezu, located in Arunachal Pradesh, India. They find resolution in the Yarlung Tsangpo river.

Storytelling has been paramount to my artistic practice, especially ones which play with a mélange of fiction and non-fiction narratives. The use of charcoal and straight-ahead animation in my film adds to the whimsical and fluid nature of storytelling. Drawing in peculiar perspectives, and working with transitions that weave in various landscapes emphasize the spontaneity of listening to a story or remembering a dream.

This project was awarded The President’s Media Awards for Excellence – Best in 2D or Experimental Animation

Filmmaker’s Bio:

Kunsang Kyirong enjoys making tactile and textured materials move under the camera. She integrates her cultural history and themes of identity and memory through her research and practice. Her body of work exists as documentation of memories through straight ahead animation.
