Take Advantage of the Medium
“We like the fact that you can feel the real material in the objects. When
you choose your medium of work you get another aspect to play with.
How would that material express what I want to express? When you
animate a paper or a person you actually use a material that everybody
has a relation to, and then you add another layer and give this material
life in any way your imagination will lead you.”
Merav and Yuval Nathan
