> DESCRIPTION
Using lo-fi hand-made techniques, the artists in this Hammer Project experiment with various materials to create animated shorts about bizarre and enchanting characters. Swedish-born Nathalie Djurberg moulds clay figures and places them in charged and surreal scenarios; Brent Green, a self-taught animator from Pennsylvania, tells old imaginary tales using ink, transparency films, and live music tracks; and David Shrigley and Chris Shepherd explore the darker recesses of the human psyche using simple pen lines to illustrate a sordid and hilarious tale of a lost soul in search of his identity.
