The Saint Heron Agency and The Woolmark Company present ‘Passage’ – a motion portraiture and celebration of the six 2021 International Woolmark Prize finalists. “Passage” is a deeply thoughtful exploration of sustainability, and the stages of creation: contemplation, courage, optimism, vulnerability, discipline and strength. Through 6 acts of concentrated motion between stage, nature and surrealism, the film echoes themes of conjuring and ceremonious celebrations, and creates abstraction to embody the various expressions of each designer.
