Overview

Self-portrait projects have always been a cornerstone of identity-building in early childhood—but what happens when a child’s self-image leaps off the paper? In this session, we explore how animation technology can transform static 2D drawings into "living" artwork that dances, jumps, and moves. Witness the pure magic of a child seeing their own creation come to life, and learn how to use simple, open-source tools to bridge the gap between art and identity. Discover how a touch of intentionality can turn technology into a meaningful extension of a child's self-awareness.
