I started off as an animator who made short films that got screened at film festivals. Early on, I
was attracted to the experimental potentials of animation and different ways of approaching the
idea of filmic narrative. Today I work as a visual artist, using animation as part of my practice. I
will talk about various projects I worked on through the years, including my early puppet films,
more recent collaborations and upcoming projects.
Peter Larsson (b 1979) is an Stockholm based artist that predominantly experiments with stop
motion and cut out animation. His education includes a MFA in fine art, at The Royal Institute of
Art, Stockholm. In addition to animation Larsson works with drawing, collage and painting.
