It’s not very often that you get musicians with gigantic careers championing textile arts. So when we saw Hong Kong-based multimedia artist Tobie Tse’s (@tsehlt) commission for Olivia Rodrigo we were stopped in our tracks, and subsequently tumbled down the wonderful rabbit hole of her beautifully animated artworks. A rare bridging of needlework and motion, Tobie’s pieces have left us in awe – particularly the ones that weave song lyrics and illustrations into antique motifs with delicate crochet grids.

“As everything becomes increasingly digitised,” she tells It’s Nice That, “I’m drawn back to rudimentary forms of animation and image-making.” In Phenakistoscope and Change, for example, the artworks are inspired by early animation techniques such as zoetropes (a spinning device that creates the illusion of a moving picture) and Eadweard Muybridge’s The Horse in Motion. “Much of what I do is about re-contextualising these older methods in a way that feels new, while still retaining a sense of familiarity and paying homage to the history of animation,” she says. #ItsNiceThat
