About Laura
I am a global trotter with shoes and books in 3 different cities - Toronto, London, and Lisbon. I live to dance, and dance to live. I play the cello, follow a plant-based diet, and can speak Portuguese, Spanish, English, and basic French. Now on a more serious note… My path to Creative Director started in Lisbon, Portugal, and has taken me to many places since, including Vancouver; London, England; and Toronto. It all started in 2011 when I landed my first job at a book publisher designing educational flash games for textbook CDROMs. Since then, I’ve been developing my career as a creative director, working for Unit9, Nexus, and now Jam3, designing interactive storytelling projects in AR, web, and experiential tech for clients such as Google, MArc Jacobs, Samsung, Amazon, Estee Lauder, Pepsi, TikTok, Netflix, and Adidas. In between I headed the digital department at Warner Bros. Records (UK), where I focused on content strategy, creative direction, and driving digital storytelling and innovation for artists campaigns such as Muse, Liam Gallagher, and Dua Lipa; After work, I volunteer my time and give back to the community and industry by being involved in multiple mentorship programs in Portugal, the UK, and Canada. I also provide pro-bono services to nonprofits such as Help Heal Humanity, A Woman’s Worth, and One Cause a Day and have developed my personal project ReMIND Academy, a community-based learning program that stimulates critical thinking and creativity in young people from disadvantaged backgrounds. I hold a BA in Communication Design, an MA in New Media, a Diploma in Digital Design, and a TEFL certificate.

I'm an Interiors and Still Life Photographer, based in London. Kristy was raised in 14 houses over the 18 years she grew up in North Yorkshire. It may be this steady flow of homes, and way of living, that led to her curiosity to shape the everyday. Her love of photography was cemented in the Autumn of 2005 while spending six months at university in Springfield, Missouri, developing her calm, clean and focussed style while photographing with her Mamiya C330. She draws influence from American and European Modernist architecture, along with suburban imagery from the 1950’s onwards, creating surreal and playful imagery hinged on her desire to form intrigue, through line, form and arrangement.

Misha Milovanovich is a Belgrade-born artist living and working in London. Misha works across several mediums, from sculpture to painting and live art. Characterised by vivid colour, optical movement and energetic visual cadences, Misha's visual work fuses a diverse repertoire of images and forms. She often features discarded shards of consumerism - unloved icons of disposability and careless consumption.   Misha's work is often a symphonic  abstraction. Her colourful, densely layered works are held in a state of tension between order and chaos, rational structure and spontaneity. She combines depth and surface relief, orchestrating bold contrasts of form, texture and space in her pictures. An intimate colour palette of bodily fluids - red, pink, white, black, yellow and brown - animate the writhing forms and the refracted memories of cartoonish cultural production.   A cultural polymath, Misha is constantly engaged in observing society and it’s distortions of desire, lust and attitudes to the body. Traditional techniques have been studied and absorbed and although her work is partly conceptual, it's execution always reflects these hard won technical abilities. Misha's main subject matter is emotion, so naturally her work is highly personal and biographical in ways that create a direct, emotional response from the viewer. Empathy and the universals of human experience - passion, nostalgia, desire and disgust are inescapable in her work.   Misha is herself a ‘displaced’ person, having left Serbia for London in her late teens she still carries within her a ‘stranger’s perspective’ and perceives the world as an outsider, someone ever alert to the non-verbal subtleties of communication.   Misha's artistic progenitors include her mentor Martin Kippenberger, Wassily Kandinsky  and Phillip Guston as well as contemporary artists Gilbert and George, Keith Tyson, Robert Pruitt and Jim Lambie.
