We make research-informed creative work in the fields of art, media and education to amplify the social and cultural voice of organizations.
CREATIVE: We’re not bound by form. It’s in our nature to explore different outlets of expression. We’re interested in experimentation and collaborations that offer new ways of approaching an issue. We value the eclectic, the quirky and the left-field.
CONNECTED: There are layers to our connectedness: people, animals, Mother Earth. We choose to work with others who share these values. We believe in social relationships, which are fundamental to who we are and how we do things. We experience climate despair, too, and we do our best to be regenerative in how we live.
CURIOUS: We are naturally curious, which feeds our interest in educating, both as a means of connecting with people as well as an outcome of our work. Curiosity allows us to imagine and push boundaries, expand possibilities both artistically and practically. This has a strong impact on how we integrate ideas to our projects. We encourage others to be curious, too.
Carolyn Oei
I am an artist, educator, writer and copy editor. My 20+ years of professional experience spans law, public relations, corporate communications and education in Beijing, London, Singapore and Toronto. My writing and fabric-based art are social commentaries that pay attention to the joys and sorrows of being human. I’m currently doing my doctoral studies at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE), University of Toronto. My research explores the nexus points of community development, participatory culture, government relations and environmental justice. I’m an OISE Fellow and was most recently awarded the 2025-2026 Ontario Graduate Scholarship and Wilfred Rusk Wees Fellowship.
