I remember the first time I came across the images from this fashion film ‘Embers of Bloom’ by Daniel Obasi. I could immediately connect with the tale of friendship and how important clothes are in telling a narrative.
I would applaud the organization, it absolutely communicated the message, this is what happens when creatives work together.

EMBERS OF BLOOM: DANIEL OBASI
“Let’s pretend no one else is here”
Inspired by friendship and the fantasy of becoming someone else through fashion. The film is a visual experience of what finding yourself could look like, a momentary realization and escape through emptiness, expressions, and metaphors into something different, something that makes you bloom!
