We are thrilled to announce that the hugely talented Olivier Kugler has joined us here at Killington Arts. Olivier Kugler’s extraordinary body of work covers some of the most shocking refugee crises of our generation. His extensive reportage has brought clarity and understanding of the plight of Middle Eastern refugees in Europe and his book, ‘Escaping War and Waves’ won two prestigious design awards.  His visual journalism has taken him from Iraqi Kurdistan to Cairo, China, Laos and beyond.  Olivier’s work also extends into the more domestic side of life and he has created exquisite food illustrations, fiction covers and beautifully eloquent portraits.

Effortlessly elegant, this illustration by the hugely accomplished Kuri Huang sends shivers down our spine. It graces an Onmyoji card game and forms a series of stunning images.

This charming animation, created by Liang-Hsin Huang was one of a series of gifs created for Salena Godden as a part of the royal society of literature, Literature Matters series.

Another sophisticated illustrated animation, created by Jun Cen for the Newyorker Magazine, digital edition. His subtle palette and elegant design techniques are unmistakable and powerful in equal measure.

Beautiful new work by Cat O’Neil for the Financial Times, Hong Kong. Cat’s distinctive palette and exceptional draftsmanship are used to great effect in carrying another difficult financial narrative.

We are thrilled to announce that the prestigious Pura Belpré has been won by the very talented Loris Lora for her publication, May your Life Be Deliciosa.  A real accolade for an exceptional artist – so well deserved.

Out today on the Wellcome Collection’s Stories platform, a powerful piece by Meg Fozzard on cardiac arrest in young people with an equally powerful set of illustrations by the very talented Cat O’Neil: https://lnkd.in/eDApQDm5
Cat has a wonderful way of conveying the hugely personal and difficult stories of our lives with delicacy and clarity.

The drama in Owen Freeman’s illustration work is unmistakable and utilises all the best techniques of cinematography such as powerful lighting, unusual camera angles and reduced pallet to engage and describe emotion. This piece for AARP is no exception. Working across editorial, design, publishing and advertising fields, his work is as varied as it is commanding.

Animated campaign for CRM heavyweight, Salesforce. The wonderful Paul Rogers continues to illustrate and design murals, posters, typography, magazine ads and visual development for animation for this huge ongoing campaign. As fabulous as ever Paul!

Cat O’Neil has an extraordinary ability to illustrate complex or difficult ideas without losing the warmth and charm needed to engage. This recent image formed part of a series for the Wellcome Collection for their web-based ‘stories’ platform.  The brief was to create images based on writings by researcher and environmentalist, Nataly Allasi Canaleson. These powerful, multifarious texts needed an intellectual approach and careful image research. As ever, Cat was more than up to the challenge with these gorgeous cut-outs.
