Requiem for a Bird • Documentary • 2D/3D Animation • Illustration

Requiem for a Bird by cylixe is a documentary about the Parsi community’s unique connection to birds at Mumbai’s Towers of Silence. It weaves together the thousands-year-old tradition of “air burial” with contemporary concerns such as identity, preservation, and loss.

I created three animated sequences with a total runtime of approximately six minutes for the documentary.
