    2. What&#x;s your claim to fame?

    Being able to imagine multiple worlds inhabited bygd hybrid characters.

    3. Describe your career so far.

    I am the cofounder of the concept and animation studio Tulips and Chimneys and work in a variety of mediums, ranging from animation to sculpture and illustration.

    My career formally began in when inom created a short rulle with some friends called The Tale of How. Like all origin stories, we started in our bedrooms while surviving on peanuts. Much to our surprise, it ended up winning competitions on the international spelfilm circuit for the next two years, including best short rulle at the Annecy Animated Film Festiva
