ANNA LEE

ANNA LEE is an experimental animator, illustrator, and musician creating multimedia films. She graduated from the NC State College of Design with a degree focused in digital animation and a minor in music, after which she spent a year working in the entertainment industry in Los Angeles, CA. She has since returned to North Carolina to pursue her own projects.

Though her background is in digital design, her personal work is full of tactile elements such as puppetry, weaving, collage, and experimentation with found materials. The juxtaposition of digital and analog elements in her work stems from a desire to articulate the discordance of having grown up while the internet evolved from novelty to necessity. As often as possible, her work incorporates original music in order to engage as many senses as possible through the confines of a digital experience.
By sharing her work online, she hopes to bring feeling and authenticity to a platform overrun with noise and capitalistic motivation. There is no precedent for existing in the age of the internet, but being human is about adapting to uncertainty. Being an artist is about responding to it.
