We are part nerds, and we love keeping up to date on current technology advances and their application in the arts and cultural sector of varying applications.
Our passion is a win-win for you.

We work on behalf of creatives, promoting your practice and supporting opportunities.
As an artist agent, we support artists to do what they do best, be creative, and we take care of the non-creative things.
Let us tell everyone about your practice. We will promote and connect you with those who share your vision.
You will be front of mind, and we will create opportunities that support the intentions of your practice, collaborating with you, sharing knowledge and skills in an environment that fosters high impact and memorable creative experiences.
We are not a gallery. We have no fixed address, so the wider we travel and connect, the further your practice does.
