Projects
VSCO is a photography platform that helps people create by providing guidance, editing tools, and a community that supports without judgment.
OUR SPIRITS is a jiu jitsu and wrestling brand that creates community, builds character, and inspires artistry. We are here for the kids — a portion of all proceeds provide mentorship, training and community to underestimated youth.
A collaboration between VSCO and Access Ventures, Voices was a grant program that supports creators who use art to give voice to marginalized communities in the United States.
VSCO Artist Initiative™ was a grant program that provided artists with the resources to pursue their creative vision. The Initiative funded over 30 artist projects, ranging from documentaries to stop motion films to fine art.
Side Projects
Elegant, refined fashion combining Japanese-milled performance fabrics with minimalist silhouettes. Defiantly “slow fashion,” the making of garments commences only when ordered, and hand-assembled to each individual’s exact specifications.
Table is a record of contemporary Asian and Pacific Islander creativity that exists to bring exposure and awareness to the work and influence of the emerging API creative community.
SELF is a collaborative playground for experimentation through furniture design. I partnered with SELF founder Marvell Lahens to design a minimal and modern side table that pays homage to my Chinese ancestry.
Plaza is a small, experimental arm of VSCO. We are imagining a new world for artists and the future of visual research, creation, and economy within a collective context.
Exhibitions entrusts highly regarded curators to create limited time NFT shows, hand-selecting the artists and their digital works to be showcased. It’s a unique approach that brings the quality and curation of physical art galleries into the digital realm — less, but better.
