That&#8217;s why I went to do animation, cause everyone said &#8211; hey you should make your sculptures move! So I did stop motion for a year, but figured out I was most interested in creating the set design, lighting and photographing the sets&#8230; not so much the animation part of it. I now focus on making &#8220;Story Objects&#8221;, sculptures that are vehicles for the imagination of the viewer. It feels like the objects contain a story, but it up to you to create your own.&#8221;<\/em><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">\n<div>See? Love.
