Lilli Carré is an interdisciplinary artist working primarily in experimental animation, print, and ceramic sculpture. Recent works focus on limits, mutations and perceived misbehaviors. Much of her work is centered around the physical and virtual experience of a body, and representations of feminine form, desire, and agency throughout history. She is particularly interested in the open-ended possibilities and histories of the animated body – simultaneously extremely physical and virtual, free of expectations or fixed form.
Her films have screened in festivals worldwide, including the Sundance Film Festival, IFFR, Annecy, 25FPS, Ann Arbor and the European Media Arts Festival. She has created work for The New Yorker, The New York Times, the LA Philharmonic, The Poetry Foundation, and Best American Comics amongst other places, and published several graphic novels with Fantagraphics. She is the Co-Director of the Eyeworks Festival of Experimental Animation which she co-founded in 2010, and currently teaches in the Experimental Animation program at CalArts.
At MacDowell, Lilli began developing a new animated short film, painted on paper in combination with CGI movement and collage.
