Hot damn – How amazing is the work of Bec Winnel! She’s a cool, cool kat with a set of pencils and brushes, constantly creating new goodness for us to enjoy. Catch her speaking at the year’s Semi-Permanent in Sydney if you know what’s good for ya.
An ordinary plan
Shaun Tan is a creator of world’s, universes, charters and cleverness. His movie The Lost Thing is a magical tale, and this prolific artist has created a staggering set of children’s books – no mean feat! Shaun is taking the stage at this year’s agIdeas – and tickets are still available so why not go along and see him? We’ll be there!

Just our type a guy
Luca Ionescu of Like Minded Studios is someone we here at Nobody just think is the bees cabana shorts. Not only is his name synonymous with amazing typography, his work is just crazy good. Speaking at this year’s Semi-Permanent in Sydney we just can’t wait to see what he has to say about the big bold world of type!
Old world charm
The Steampunk-esque and Elizabethan photography of Kate O’Brien is simply stunning. An emerging photographer from Brisbane, Australia she combines a love of history with a sharp eye for vintage and historic goodness to create, as she says on her website, ‘a visual journey through time’. Love it!
