Lucas Zanotto
Lucas Zanotto is a designer and animator that I initially discovered on Instagram. Among his many approaches, Zanotto has managed to create a portfolio of 3d loop animations that is characterized by its geometric minimalism, use of eye-pleasing color palettes, among other aspects. In my opinion, his distinguishable work has been highlighted by the fact that his animations manage to create narratives with the use of basic geometric elements and cyclical movements, which involve human and non-human subjects, in addition to various intangible elements such as the representation of different moods. The figure-movement relationship allows abstracting from these pieces the context proposed by the artist, the morphology or the composition of different beings; which means that the viewer can immediately relate his pieces to situations in social life, nature or fiction. Furthermore, for the most part, the loops represent binary states: happiness-sadness, two states of movement, forward-backward, up-down, among others.

David McLeod
David McLeod is an Australian artist who explores the repetitive, mathematical and geometric nature of our physical plane through 3D modeling. In my point of view, his work is not entirely abstract. Despite not demonstrating an explicit relationship between form and object, the elements follow and behave under certain mathematical and physical rules present in our nature. Something that he achieves with great mastery is the use of textures and colors that locates the object on our physical plane, without actually being possible in real life.
