I was invited by the director and filmmaker Miroslav Terzić to create an illustration for his up and coming movie Stitches. The movie centers around the story of a mother whose routine has been interrupted when she accidentally found out that her boy allegedly died minutes after his birth after 17 years is still alive. I wished to create an image which would reflect the plot of the movie, the idea of a loss and a missing child, the emptiness within a hug, the emptiness within a typical position of a mother holding her child.
Created during the production phase of the movie, the illustration was used for its promotion and was featured in a booklet organized by the Film Center of Serbia showcasing the production and the still to come films of Serbia during the Cannes festival in 2017.
