Mark Leckey
congrats (apologies in advance sorry no pictures or video)
His winning works include the film Cinema in the Round which shows him lecturing about his love of animation.
The key motifs of the work of Leckey, who creates footage based on contemporary culture, are desire and transformation.
According to judges, he uses his "own state of being" - an artist in London who grew up in northern England in the 1980s - to explore those motifs.
"He celebrates the imagination of the individual and our potential to inhabit, reclaim or animate an idea, a space, or an object," they added.
The artist was shortlisted for solo exhibitions Resident, at Kolnischer Kunstverein, Cologne, and Industrial Light & Magic, at Le Consortium, Dijon.
Leckey, the only man on the shortlist, beat Goshka Macuga, Runa Islam and Cathy Wilkes to win the prize, which has had only three female winners since its 1984 inception.
