The Brothers Quay: Stephen and Timothy (1947-)
Are American Identical Twins. They are both stop motion animators, some of their work includes. The brothers have a wide range of influences, including Jan Švankmajer who their film ‘The Cabinet of Jan Švankmajer’ is named after, even though he is a big influence to them they didn’t find his work until later into their careers when they had already found their style. The majority of their animations contain puppets which are made up of doll parts, and other materials all of which as usually disassemble, they are often shot in a dark and moody atmosphere. Another recognizable trait of their films is that they often don’t contain any meaningful dialogue- with some having no spoken parts at all, they say that they rely on their films scores which are mostly unique to them
