About

Lily Simatupang is an Australian animator and illustrator based in Melbourne with a love for 2D hand drawn animation, its characters, worlds and the nuanced storytelling it could convey.

Heavily influenced by narrative dense video games with a strong focus on character interaction, themes of self reflection and our connections to those around us often appear in her work.
