MIWA MATREYEK is an award-winning animator and multi-media artist working in the LA area. She creates animated short films as well as works that integrate animation, projections and her own moving shadow. She is interested in how animation transforms when it is combined with body and space (and vice-versa).
Her solo video-performance, Dreaming of Lucid Living, won the Princess Grace Award for Film, as well as two awards at the Platform International Animation Festival: Student Grand Prix and Audience Choice Award for Best Installation. Dreaming of Lucid Living was also her thesis in the CalArts Experimental Animation program.
Enough said. Take a quiet 20 minutes and dive in!
My suggestion of links:
- MIWA MATREYEK is also a founding member of CLOUD EYE CONTROL, a Los Angeles-based multi-disciplinary performance collective which makes theatrical productions with cleverly integrated animation projections
- an interview by Flux Super 8 where she explains her process
