Lucas Zanotto Creates Mesmerizing Animation Loops

It’s easy to get lost in Lucas Zanotto’s animated loops and we’re always anxiously waiting for him to share a new one. The Italian-born artist, director, and animator creates colorful and humorous work and manages to turn simple shapes and a pair of eyes into emotional characters.

Over time, Zanotto’s work has shifted to digital and he mostly focuses on his animation loops these days. Speaking about his move from analog to digital, the artist says that he enjoys creating digital art because it’s faster and easier to produce. The only downside, as he tells This is Colossal, is that “you are staring into a screen the whole time while building sets and filming is a more holistic experience.”
