Although most famous for his two-dimensional work in graphic novels such as Sandman, Dave McKean's art reaches firmly into the third dimension of sculpture (often the basis for his illustrative art) and the fourth dimension of time.

Some of you may have seen his video for Primus, "The Ballad of Buckethead" and experienced the fast, surreal swirl of imagery; others may have been lucky enough to see the thoughtful, slow film short of God's decision to start the universe, The Week Before.

Currently, you can see his work in the full length film Mirrormask. Dave McKean's breadth of work is as intriguing as his multi-layered depth in each frame, each page, of his projects.

Sonnet 138 

A McKean short film of Shakespeare's Sonnet 138, 2001.

Dave Mckean - Sonnet 138

(A short movie of Dave Mckean about Sonnet 138 {Shakespeare} When my love swears that she is made of truth, I do believe her though I know she lies, That she might think me some untutored youth, Unlearned in the world's false subtleties. Thus vainly thinking that she thinks me young, Although she knows my days are past the best, Simply I credit her false-speaking tongue, On both sides thus is simple truth suppressed: But wherefore says she not she is unjust? And wherefore say not I that I am old? O love's best habit is in seeming trust, And age in love, loves not to have years told. Therefore I lie with her, and she with me, And in our faults by lies we flattered be.
