We are curious about
their work,
not the moment.
Leila Antakly has been talking to the artists, designers, musicians and thinkers shaping culture since 2003. This is the archive of those conversations, and where they led.

Naja Conrad Hansen
Naja Conrad-Hansen draws fashion like someone who also listens to hardcore music — and that tension is exactly the point. The Copenhagen-based illustrator and designer, selected four times for Lürzer's Archive's 200 Best Illustrators Worldwide, has worked with everyone from Louis Vuitton to BBC Radio 4. Her dream project isn't a brand campaign. It's a picture as beautiful as Imagine.
Izzie Klingels
Isvald Klingels started with a fanzine — black and white, hand-made, passed between female friends. That's where the pen and ink style was born. From there: Death in Vegas promos, Calvin Klein, the V&A, Vogue, animations, textiles, workshops in Seattle and London. The dream project remains classified.
“Visibility has never been our measure of significance. We seek out artists and inspiring individuals whose work sparks curiosity, challenges assumptions, and leaves a lasting impression.”
Every project, image, and story is about framing a series of questions that are deeply important to me as a human being.- Shirin Neshat
