Moving Images

Thomas found a way to draw interest in his 2D prints. “Drawing on a computer can be quite brutal, so I’ve been thinking about how I can make it more beautiful,” he explains. 2017 saw him taking his first steps into the world of moving images with Posters for Peace for Sid Lee Collective: an open call for all creatives, designers, and illustrators to submit their visions of peace in a 24” x 36” poster. The short promotional animation, Thomas’ favorite project, features his sickly-sweet illustrations brought to life by animator David Leclerc, juxtaposed with disturbing real-world footage of war and destruction.

Despite the apparent changes, Thomas’ work retains the “little human normalities” that have always interested him. “I’ve zoomed out with my work, thinking more about aesthetics and trying to make something more fluid,” he explains. This approach enables him to incorporate more narrative into his work.

By taking advantage of symbology and focusing on projects over a more extended period, he has begun to create work that conveys feeling and atmosphere in a less literal manner.
