Ree Treweek is a world builder – a sculptor, painter, illustrator, animator and director.
She has been seeking out spaces that find their resonance somewhere in between what is considered the Primary, and perhaps what may be, a Secondary world. It’s from these worlds, and the space where the two intersect, that Ree mines visual cues, stories and aesthetics to create her distinctive visual language.
As a co-founder of The Blackheart Gang, Shy the Sun and Tulips & Chimneys, Ree has become Africa’s most awarded animation director, having her work with the likes of Electronic Arts, Hendrick’s Gin, Riot Games, and United Airlines awarded at the Clios, Communications Arts Awards, D&AD, The Loeries, The London International Awards, Mobius Awards, New York Festivals and The South African Film and Television Awards, among others.
