I found something between the lines.

Index / choose a room

The gallery is the menu.

This is not organized like a normal portfolio. Each room is a medium, a version of the same instinct: build the thing that did not have a category yet.

Selected works / open case files

Evidence of the work.

Fan films, originals, campaigns and experiments live together here, but the future points toward original worlds. The archive shows the path, not the cage.

Person No. 001 / artist statement

I learned
to build worlds
because I did not
fit inside one.

brandB is not the clothing brand. It is the personal system holding the films, images, objects, performances, scripts, failures, recoveries and strange proofs of work.

1986 / Origin

Marathon to elsewhere.

Born in Northern Ontario. Moved around. A childhood built out of imagination, costumes, cameras and the feeling that worlds could be made by hand.

The camera became a door.

Home movies, Australia, fan films, wrestling tapes, comic book logic, and the early wound of being laughed at for having a vision.

Australia Home films Vision Noise
2000s / Noise

No obvious category.

Bands, early YouTube, scripts, moving out young, building identity from whatever was available and learning that survival is also a creative process.

The city showed up.

Cancer changed the direction. 15 Keys became more than a film. It became proof that people would gather around the work when the work had heart behind it.

2015 to 2023 / The detour

Attention became a tool.

Marketing, advertising, ASMR, client work, websites, campaigns, audience-building and the strange education of learning how people see things.

Everything belongs now.

Effigy, Shattered Dawn, Scream Social, D.I.G., objects, garments, scripts, images and brandB collapsing into one living archive of work.

Objects / works you can hold

Not merch. Artifacts.

The clothing and objects live here as physical extensions of the archive. A garment can be a poster. A patch can be a title card. A rug can be a gallery piece. The point is the work.

case file.

The archive is personal, but it is also functional. Use this site to view the work, understand the path, and start a collaboration in film, creative direction, performance, writing or visual identity.
