Nate Milton

Nathaniel Milton has spent a lifetime trying convey the stories that he was born with through moving pictures. His animations, which are at turns ethereal and poetic and then scientific and biographical, bring the intangible into focus. His work lives in the high realms of magical strangeness, blurring the lines of what is possible when we remember that everything is magical. Working through his own dance with mental illness, Nate gives us Eli, a portrait of the depth, beauty and incomprehensible vastness of the human mind. Nate grew up in Cumberland, RI and attended SVA. He currently resides in Brooklyn. His works have appeared on Vimeo Staff Picks, Short of The Week, VICE, HBO, Facebook Watch, Radiolab and WNYC.
