It is definitely a short that can lead to an interesting discussion about the relationship between the artistic object and the artist himself, what motivates an artist to do his/her job, and the ramifications or consequences that such job can generate. It is interesting that the main character tries to bring his wife back to life through sculpture, an ancient form of art. However, he combined such "old" art with a much contemporary and technologically advanced form of expression, film. In fact, it is only when the two of them merge that the metamorphosis is completed.
Having said that, I can see why some people might not have liked the aesthetics of the film. It felt a little bit overdone or heavy handed in some instances like the green shots with the smoky car.
