Kevina-Jo Smith - visual artist/art director
Kevina grew up in country Australia, building cubbies and creating spaces in which to hide and disappear. Her drawings are a natural extension of this desire for secrecy and escape, and physical manifestations of daydreams that are at once utopian and sinister. She is interested in exploring multifaceted realities that lie somewhere in between fantasy and reality, public and private, natural and artificial, light and dark. Kevina's meticulously detailed and densely layered images draw the viewer in, always allowing them to uncover a hidden message. if they so desire. Kevina is currently working towards a solo exhibition at Black & Blue gallery in Sydney.

Grant Keats - graphic designer/re-toucher
Primarily my work is set as a photographic retoucher and my background lies solidly in the printing and publishing areas. My years have seen my artistic flair progress and in 2004 i ran my own business in Oslo, Norway for 2 years. This is where I set a solid foundation of Advertising and Photographic clientele where many of my prestigious clients lay. Essentially my retouching strengths lie in Beauty, Fashion, Commercial and Artistic retouching though a flair for design and an unhealthy addiction to making music keeps my work diverse and my brain intact. I see 2009 as great opportunity to expand my clientele in Sydney and to bring Photographic Art to a new and exciting level by collaborating with other artists and designers in our creative environment.

Benja Harney - paper engineer
Studio 8
Ive been constructing things out of paper since I was a kid and by complete chance, I rediscovered my love for this medium when I studied graphic design.
It has since become a real passion for me and I have been lucky enough to turn it into a career.
I love paper how paper is such a humble medium. It has historic and analogue qualities that appeal to my sensibilities. It is fragile but strong. Simple yet complex.
The technical challenge of creating amazing things with paper drives me forward. I love the sense of wonder that come across peoples faces when they open up one of my pop-up books. They're like hidden worlds rediscovered.
