Having recently graduated with a bachelor’s degree in animation from Edinburgh College of Art, Silvana has a passion for character animation, production design and compositing. She loves creating textural and whimsical animations, preferably hand-drawn frame by frame. In her work she explores themes of environmentalism, mental health, human connection and spirituality.
