Annay views this piece as a window into the everyday emotional journey we all take. Hubba Bubbles, the wheku, becomes a playful yet powerful expression of these inner states. Its features embody layers of emotion stretching from delight and anticipation to uncertainty and vulnerability.
Through this work, Annay wanted to explore how emotions rise, overlap, and bubble to the surface, just like blowing a bubble that can grow, stretch, and finally burst. This cycle mirrors the way we face new challenges and experiences in life. The wheku reminds us that excitement and fear often exist side by side, and that both are essential when we are exploring something new.
