Something Savage

By Daniel Savage Kaleidoscopic, vivid, rhythmic… designer, director, and illustrator Daniel Savage invites us into a world where geometric abstraction meets machine-assisted animation. Blurring the boundaries between analogue and digital, Savage uses a pen plotter to bring his layered, color-rich frames to life. Inspired by nature, shapes, and the grain of handmade textures, Savage’s latest body of work captures the tension between control and chaos, where bleeding marker lines and sunset hues create a hypnotic visual rhythm. Something Savage is a meditation on process, restraint, and play: a bold exploration of how machines can extend—rather than erase—the human hand in art. The book comes with a little extra: each page is paired with augmented reality content, allowing readers to experience Savage’s work in all its technicolor splendor.
