RE:Anima made a powerful mark at La Biennale di Venezia 2025. Alumni Hsin-Hsuan Yeh, Menghui Huang, and Négar Motevalymeidanshah presented their graduation projects in the renowned Venice Immersive section.

A standout moment came with Négar Motevalymeidanshah, who won the Premio Speciale della Giuria (Special Jury Award) for Less than 5GR of saffron — a moving VR experience on migration, memory, and resilience.

The works showcased RE:Anima’s creative range:

• Sense of Nowhere — Hsin-Hsuan Yeh explores the journey from disconnection to presence.
• The Big Cube — Menghui Huang questions conformity through minimalist VR storytelling.
• Less than 5GR of saffron — Négar Motevalymeidanshah, awarded Special Jury Prize, reflects on displacement and remembrance.
