Faye Craig is a 2D animator and director based in London. She specialises in dynamic and lively animation, with a soft spot for sweet sweeping transitions. Taking inspiration from jungle raves, graffiti watching, music and Black British culture, her work often acts as a vessel of speech, enabling conversations surrounding marginalisation, power and the conditions of socio-economic disparity and political pressure. With a crafted visual style that drips at the edges, Faye’s practice shares the light and the dark to empower, embody and liberate the life of the Black, Beautiful and British.

Made while studying an MA in Animation at the Royal College of Art, Faye’s latest film Sour Days (2023) screened at festivals including the BFI Future Film Festival, Tricky Women Animation Festival and Cardiff Animation Festival, and was selected by Andrew Pierre-Hart as part of a screening programme at Whitechapel Gallery.
