Edd Atchison is an illustrator and animator based in Melbourne, Australia.
Graduating RMIT in 2025 with a Bachelor's in Animation and Interactive Media, Edd's works meld digital, sculpture, painting, and animation mediums to create surreal fantasy worlds fit with eccentric travellers and wondrous scenery.
Heavenly Sutures is a passion project of mine that was fortunate enough to come to fruition as my graduate film.
At the time of writing Heavenly Sutures in late 2023 I was reading a lot of Philippe Druillet's Lone Sloane, and Mike Mignola's Hellboy, and was incredibly inspired by the deep world building and lore that seeps into every panel.
Heavenly Sutures is my ode to epic, sprawling, fantasy world building, and a character study exploring the themes of obsession, judgement, heavenly guidance, and conditional
love.
