Rita is a multidisciplinary design studio Her world is both 2D and 3D. Rita believes that graphic, object and event design are naturally interconnected. Working together, these modes of design complement each other, inspiring new creative solutions in form, function and communication. Inherent to Rita’s style, is the combination of different aspects of design. In each project, the graphic treatment is integral to the format, and vice versa. Whether it’s a city-sized intervention, or simply the design of an everyday object, this interdisciplinary philosophy applies to all levels, in all circumstances. Rita believes this step results in more comprehensive projects. So a dialogue in projects is born, between packaging and content, purpose and form.

Robyn Cumming

Robyn enjoys sad things that are sometimes also funny things. She likes patterns and glowing light and funny little simple gestures. Her work is inspired by human beings and how tragic, mundane and impossible our lives can often be. Much of her current work is informed by the act of remembrance, deliberate or not, and the sensations that can be triggered by jaunts into the past.—From the artist's site.

Shawn Kuruneru

Black and white. surreal. faces. collage. figurative. strokes. human. expression. Shawn Kuruneru was born 1984 in Toronto, Ontario and currently lives and works in Montreal, Quebec.

'The clusters of faces are about simultaneity, repetition and my interest in portraiture. My work is an amalgam of drawing and collage which is why there is strange juxtapositions and repeated imagery. I edit, layer, cut, distort and simplify a lot of my drawings. I like the idea that there will never be a singular perfect version of something.'—Fecalface.
