#GriefEncounters by Munky King x Stu Gamble - bringing Luke Chueh’s art to animated life!
UPDATED: The “Grief Encounters” Kickstarter has since gone “live”!
"Grief Encounters is a series of animated shorts that brings to life the art of renowned pop-surrealist, Luke Chueh. Signature to his paintings are the evocative narratives contained within the still images and their titles.
What's the deal with the bear after he was hijacked by the Devil in Possessed? Or what's up with the chicken in I Asked For Scrambled?
We hope to explore these narrative conundrums by animating some of the most iconic paintings from Chueh's portfolio. Reimagining the worlds within whilst weaving narratives that stay true to his unique blend of comedy and tragedy."
A teaser has dropped for “GRIEF ENCOUNTERS” from Munky King Toys, where Luke Chueh’s art is animated by Stu Gamble. Looks like Luke's "TARGET" character figure is going off somewhere, possibly painting a "bull's eye" on his chest? :p
Launching July 20th, possibly as a "Kickstarter"? (if I speculate based on "hashtags", anyways) ... Meanwhile, folks can get ready for a “#GriefEncounters Scavenger Hunt”, only at San Diego Comic Con 2017! "Stay tuned for further updates*
