Luca Dipierro is an animator, writer and translator born in Italy and living in the USA. His cut-out animations, filmed in stop motion with marionettes made out of paper and old book cloth, have been called “a perfect balance between creepy and charming” (The Huffington Post), and "weirdly charming and unerringly unsettling" (The Quietus). His work has been shown in theaters, galleries, and film festivals worldwide. Dipierro is the author of the collections of short prose Biscotti neri (2011), Nei paesi infimi (2024), Fogna e Quinta (2026); the art zine Das Ding; the illustrated novel in cards A Wooden Leg; and numerous art booklets.
