“I find beauty in all its facets. My work is about showcasing different forms of beauty that I believe our society could do a better job of representing. We are so different, and I think it is especially important to show this in the world of fashion. I follow this principle when I cast models and also by exploring my own origins and identity.” – Nadine Ijewere

Italian-born Julia Noni, found her passion for photography while studying visual arts in Düsseldorf. The graphic elegance, and attention to the subtleties of human gesture that have been manifest in her fashion imagery since are grounded in her multidisciplinary understanding of visual culture. 

With her talent for choreographing of her subjects’ movement, and refined visual understanding of architectural and pictorial space, she constructs distinctive characters, narratives and a sense of place within her imagery.

Mila grew up between London, Oslo, and Connecticut.

Her narrative-based approach relies on meticulous research with a wide range of influences and imagery such as mundane daily happenstances, building sites, b movies, and paintings. 

Simplicity, grace, strength and movement are recurring themes that show themselves in Jessica Willis’ work. Her experience in costume design and years working behind the scenes in the music industry inform an understanding of the body in 360 degrees.

The fluctuation of time and reappearance of themes, materials and shapes are a creative preoccupation in her practice. These ideas paired with consistent technical precision make her work both singular, extremely relevant and timeless in the cultural and visual landscape of the present moment.
