Artsy got in touch with Dutch Uncle with an idea of creating a series of 3 x 1 minute animated films narrated by artists about the turning points in their careers. 

Having bookmarked 'California Inspires Me' and 'Modern Love' animations directed by Freddy Arenas, we pitched the idea of Freddy directing these 3 animations for the Artsy team. They shared our vision that Freddy's directing approach and sensibility to narrative storylines was a perfect fit. 

The 3 films capture the moment when artists @lauriesimmons, NickCave and @kristinemays find their vocation or discover a new path in which to move forward in their work.

The stories are filled with emotion and moments of self discovery.
