Harryhausen

HarryHausen.

 

Ray Harryhausen’s films left a deep impression on me as a child—those Sunday mornings watching Jason and the Argonauts, The 7th Voyage of Sinbad, or Clash of the Titans became formative visual experiences.

 

The creatures, movement, and atmosphere still sit somewhere near the core of how I imagine and make images.

 

This series began during the lockdown, with a drawing of Calibos from Clash of the Titans. Since then, I’ve returned to Harryhausen’s world again and again, building a loose collection of drawings and paintings that pay tribute to his iconic stop-motion creations. The project is ongoing—I’ll add to it each time a new figure or moment insists on being drawn.
