Italo Calvino was a renowned Italian writer known for his imaginative and fantastical storytelling. During my final year of graphic design studies in Lebanon, I created a small animation inspired by the story of ‘Armilla’ from Calvino’s book ‘Invisible Cities.’ This was one of my first animations made using After Effects, an animation tool. The creation explores the hidden depths of the city of wells, drawing on Calvino’s unique blend of whimsy and depth.
