Shear

An image cut into an uneven seeded grid, every tile deliberately corrupted its own way.

What we do

We use it for music, streetwear and nightlife work, where the damage has to look authored rather than applied.

What it is

A studio for controlled corruption. An image is cut into a seeded, uneven grid of unequal columns and rows, and every tile is given its own treatment: pull, pixel sort, pixelate, channel shift, slice. The unevenness is the design; a regular grid of glitches reads as a filter.

Where it goes

Music, streetwear, nightlife and youth campaigns, where the deliberate damage has to look authored rather than applied.
