A Handmade Animated Dream
�𝙀𝙭𝙘𝙡𝙪𝙨𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙋𝙧𝙚𝙢𝙞𝙚𝙧𝙚 �Tender - Just Desserts��“I was interested in the dynamic between the growing sculptural form of accumulating frames and the more two dimensional experience of the interior animation. The sculpture becomes the carcass of the film’s expired animated life, and by reconciling the needs of the sculpture with the needs of the animation, both end up taking on unexpected organic qualities, suggesting further growth.”

"The process of synthesizing sculpture and animation – or stop motion and live action – is not one that is done on paper ahead of time, but by following our noses, by remaining stubbornly playful and curious even as the walls close in around us."
@james_siewert_artwork returns to DN with his Just Desserts music video 'Tender', a stop motion piece depicting society's rise and fall upon a single rotating platform. James talks to us about the song and the visuals going hand in hand, the process of building this physical world with spontaneous creativity, and how real-life fire and animation do not work well together.
