The art of Montreal-based artist Cécile Gariépy is decidedly charming and full of humor. Her collaboration with animation studio SHED brings her lovely characters to life, and shows off some serious goofy dance skills.

“Confined Dances” is a collaboration between Cécile Gariepy and SHED. SHED’s 3D animation of Cécile’s illustrations is a tribute to all of us as humans, capable to adapt, to find hope and joy, even in tough situations.
