Working with @seankellygallery is always so much fun— especially when we get to make studio visits with incredible artists like Brian Rochefort. ��
These “monster-like” sculptures are achieved through multiple firings, a painterly approach, and a focus on textural layering.
This video is one of our favorites that we've done for the gallery, because we got to uncover the often “behind the scenes” details of the artistic process.

It's always a special treat for us to work with musical clients! We put together this trailer for an incredible performance at @stjohndivinenyc in collaboration with @runningamoc of John Adam's "El Niño: Nativity Reconsidered".
The piece, which celebrates Latin American poets and the voices of women, returned for a one-night-only performance in December 2023.
“I think that great contemporary art helps us understand our current moment. It’s a reflection of all the messy complexities of the world we live in.” �

The impact of AI has been a primary topic of discussion in every sector over the past few years. This video that we created for The Knight Foundation pulls insights from some of the top minds in the field, as well as artists and creators who are pushing the boundaries of the technology.
This video is only one part of our full "Catalyst" series for the Knight Foundation. The series is comprised of countless interviews taken on site during their Catalyst forum in Miami Beach.

This video we shot for Langson IMCA still resonates. One of the goals of any arts and cultural institution is providing magical moments to the next generation. ��
We are always so honored to be a part of helping to amplify the good works being done by our colleagues across the country (and sometimes the globe)!
It's always an interesting and introspective process updating your website, no? You comb through recent and old work and it's always surprising what rises to the surface. We're excited to share the new Bower Blue website (link in bio) and just as excited to share some of the work we've been doing for our clients around the U.S. and the globe!
Over the coming weeks we'll be sharing some of our favorite recent projects from across a spectrum of arts and cultural institutions.
At our heart, we are storytellers and strategists...we're excited to show you what it looks like when those two identities merge.
What's your favorite way to reminisce? Ours is definitely making new sizzle reels! It's an incredible way to reflect and reconnect with old projects and you really get to see "the full picture" 🖼️
The depth and diversity of our recent clients and projects has been remarkable:
- Creating a multi-media sponsored-content project that generated over 3.5M views with the Knight Foundation
- Developing and launching a comprehensive multi-platform digital content strategy for a museum project at UC Irvine
- Plus a myriad of social, web, newsletter, and video projects for galleries and other institutions across the art world.

#BTS from earlier this month when we shot a new promo at @dlancontemporary for their upcoming exhibition "Shaping the Landscape: Spirit Figures From Northern Australia". The exhibition marks the first time that these thirty-one figurative sculptures have been on display together—opening tomorrow, Thursday, February 6 at D'Lan's New York exhibition space.
It's always such a privilege to document the works at D'Lan Contemporary and we encourage everyone to go by their NYC gallery and see these incredible sculptures in person.
Congratulations to our colleagues at Blue Medium for making Observer's PR Power List! We're so lucky to work with such an intelligent, compassionate, and savvy team. 🎉
We work closely with the public relations team to ensure that our clients' narratives aren't just well-placed across traditional media but also well-told across digital platforms.
Last fall we had the opportunity to create a series of videos promoting Langson IMCA’s recently closed exhibition, “End of the Range: Charlotte Skinner in the Eastern Sierra”. (@langsonimca )
“Skinner’s work is incredibly compelling because it gives context to a time in California’s history that is really overlooked”.
The exhibition was organized by the Nevada Museum of Art in Reno (@nevadaart ) and curated by Kolin Perry (@justkolin2sayhi ) who is featured in this teaser clip we produced alongside more long-form videos.
On Sep. 19, 2024, our team had the honor to work alongside the D'Lan Contemporary team to capture this unique opening ceremony performed by artist Gunybi Ganambarr, and representatives from Buku-Larrŋgay Mulka Art Centre at the D'Lan space in New York.
The exhibition, Gapu-Buḏap – Crossing the Water, was Ganambarr's first solo exhibition in the city and featured recent two- and three-dimensional works in bark and metal.
Our goal with this video was to create a documentary-style video that created as much space as possible for the artist, the performers, and those attending the opening and to capture the profound energy that filled the gallery.
