This years theme was Unravel: Ideas Worth Disentangling. To depict the multifaceted nature of the theme, we delved into diverse visuals characterized by abstraction, intertwinement, and constant transformation. By subjecting the letter 'x' to a range of tools, we distorted and examined it, resulting in dynamic shapes that exhibit geometric distortions, gently fluctuating in form. This abstract pattern served as the basis for our visual system and was implemented throughout all promotional materials and stage design.
