Artist Link: Cyriak
Freelance animator and producer Cyriak Harris is known for his surrealist and often quite disturbing animated shorts. He uses a combination of Adobe Aftereffects and Photoshop to produce these. The vidoes display a distinct surrealist and psychidelic style, often based on fractual geometry and usually with a "distinct British theme". His animations often feature his hometown of Brighton, celebrities and television shows. Personally I quite like his work, as my own style is often surrealist.
He has been a regular contributor to b3ta, a digital art community launched in 2001, since 2004. He has had commissions from Coke, Sumo TV and other companies. He has also been director for various music vidoes. His Youtube account features a compilation of his animations, which have been noticed by many in the blogging world.
His work also led to a short interview with BBC South East in November 2006. The BBC commissioned his video "DeadEnders" as a sequel to Cyriak's earlier "BeastEnders". Based on the British soap opera EastEnders it explored the idea of all the characters that have died in EastEnders going on a "brain-eating zombie rampage". Both of these films were featured on the BBC Three comedy series Comedy Shuffle. Other than this, he has not been recognised to a significant extent outside of certain parts of the internet.
