What's it like inside the colorful cartoon world of animator/illustrator/sculptor Mike Perry? The Creators Project got an inside look at his day-to-day experiences, inspirations, and processes, a candid animated portrait of the artist in his Brooklyn studio. Perry's best known for his trippy illustrations for Broad City, as well as his painted nudes. In our video, he tells us firsthand what it’s like to paint on stimulants like coffee—and other drugs—and gives us a glimpse of his forthcoming original animated series. He guides us through his idiosyncratic self-expression, and how he continuously finds new ways to evoke empathy for objects, blurring lines between the cartoon and real worlds.Watch the trailer for The Creators Project's Inside the Mind of Mike Perry, and download go90 (only available in the US) to see the whole documentary.Related:Meet the Artist Behind Broad City's Awesome Animated IntrosThe Fluorescently Twisted World of Mike PerryWhat Happens When You’re Naked in a Room Full of Artists?'Broad City' Artist Curates 10 New Brooklyn Murals
