Edie Lawrence is a stop motion animator, artist and director based in Bristol. Although currently primarily focusing on claymation, Lawrence comes from a background of Illustration, mostly focusing on portraiture. She explains: "I have a passion for storytelling, music, sculpture and film, and stop motion animation allows you to morph all of these things together. Plasticine, my current medium of choice, is a material that is quite similar to oil painting. Although solid, it can forgivingly be melted down and layered to create different tones and textures. When solid, you can carve and dig away at the cracks and crevices to make the creation even more gaunt and harrowing." Everyday events and the people around Lawrence tend to be her biggest inspiration when creating, which means a lot of the time her style is subconsciously dark and twisted. Edie's work has most commonly been described as creepy, disturbing, sinister, surreal, and grotesque.
