Modern Love:  A Visual Interpretation of Connection

This project was part of a course focused on exploring metaphorical visual communication.The objective was to study how abstract or symbolic visuals can be used to express emotional or conceptual 
ideas beyond literal representation.

Inspired by the New York Times article “To Fall in Love With Anyone, 
Do This,” the animation interprets the process of falling in love not as something accidental but as something intentionally built. The article introduces a psychological experiment where two strangers ask 
each other 34 personal questions and maintain eye contact to 
foster intimacy and emotional openness.

In the animation, this connection is represented as two people 
slowly assembling a puzzle. Each question, each glance becomes
a puzzle piece, small intimate moments that gradually 
form a larger meaningful whole.

The visual metaphor highlights love as a deliberate and evolving process made possible through shared vulnerability and 
intentional connection.
