Lumen Light Night Leeds, 2009

Lumen Light Night Leeds, 2009

details about this work


Michael Salkeld is based in London


I am an artist working in animation, film and video. Capturing the subliminal rhythms of movement and refining them within the animation as a choreographed graphic representation. For me animation is choreography and visual orchestration.

I have worked in a variety of techniques ranging from hand drawn and painted animation to 2d and 3d computer CGI and video.
