“Where I Learned Virtues is a 2D narrative animation that shares my experience with Baha’i children’s classes and explores the idea of learning virtues. Throughout the animation, I share what I learned in these classes, how they helped me growing up, and the importance of teaching virtues to children such as love, kindness, generosity, truthfulness, forgiveness, and more. Although these classes are geared toward children, the teachings of these classes are applicable to everyone. This animation sheds light on the positive effects that virtues have on individuals and how it's important for everyone to learn and practice putting them into action.”
Jasmine Myers is a multimedia artist whose work focuses on opening a conversation about spirituality and religion without fear of criticism or judgment. She is currently living in Toronto and completing her 4th year in experimental animation at OCAD University while working part-time at the Canadian Revenue Agency as a Gamification Designer. Her work is primarily in 2D animation but also has experience with 3D animation, acrylic painting and watercolour painting. The main themes she likes to portray in her work include questioning our existence, the unity of humankind, the harmony of science and religion, the state of prayer, life after death, the human mind, and the universe.
