Ani­ma­tor and artist Andrea Love cre­ates ani­ma­tion using nee­dle felt­ed art. The stop-motion pieces fea­ture sets cre­at­ed entire­ly from the fiber mate­r­i­al, and she does things with it you would­n’t expect. Nee­dle felt­ing, in par­tic­u­lar, is known for its stiff­ness. It’s only by stab­bing the fibers over (and over) that you’re able to cre­ate a sta­ble form. But in Andrea’s short sto­ries, the nee­dle-felt­ed objects are ever-chang­ing. It’s what makes even the most ordi­nary scenes—sharpening a pen­cil, apply­ing nail polish—feel so magical.

Scroll down to watch Andrea’s ani­ma­tions. You’ll want to have the sound on!
