Congratulations to Nexus Studios’ Niki Lindroth von Bahr and all of the amazing talent who made Variety’s Top 10 Animators to Watch in 2018 list.

Niki is a master craftswoman and artist who loves making puppets and sets by hand. She brings her characters to life through the techniques of stop motion and puppetry. Her immensely engaging stories are darkly humorous tales, often with a vaguely surreal filter.
