Probably most famous for their animation 'Streets of Crocodiles' although most of the Quay Brothers animation films feature puppets made of doll parts and other organic and inorganic materials. These beautifully dark, moody yet somewhat highly emotive animations are created using by the use of a series of 'miniture' sets (although not life size some are in fact quite large), Most of which have no spoken dialogue and therefore highly reliant on the music.
I have admired the Quay Brothers works for quite sometime, highly captivated by these quirky and somewhat distrubing animations that pocess so much life and prevoke not only an emotional quality but a sense of experience. For the Light Night exhibition (2011) i was able to view these magical creations in person, fascinated by the tremendous detailing of these carefully crafted works and left with a feelings of pure inspiration.
