A brand new international community of creative minds.
Artista Artista started with 12 photographers from my close circle, who exhibited their work in a psychedelic setting that challenged the conventional gallery experience. As founder and curator, I'm honored to bring this movement into the world.
Turning an intimate exhibition among 12 photographers from a close circle into the foundation of an international creative community meant starting with no existing brand, digital presence, or platform to build on.
As founder, Nicole Szatkowski shaped the vision and ran it end-to-end: curating and managing the inaugural exhibition in Tbilisi, designing the logo and complete visual identity, and building the community's social media and digital presence.
Artista Artista is live at artista.kidashidesign.com and continues as an ongoing project, with the community growing beyond its original circle of 12 founding photographers.
This project falls under Kidashi Design's Brand work.
“Real projects create real connections.”
My Role
4 AreasAs Founder, I shaped the vision and philosophy behind Artista Artista from day one. Beyond conceptualization, I took on all creative and operational responsibilities to bring this movement to life.
Curator & Exhibition Manager
I curated and managed our inaugural exhibition in Tbilisi, Georgia, orchestrating every detail from artist selection to spatial design, ensuring the psychedelic setting reflected our bold vision.
Brand Identity
I designed the Artista Artista logo and developed the complete visual language, creating press materials, exhibition posters, and branded assets that capture the essence of our movement.
Community Building
I established and manage our social media presence across all platforms, building the digital foundation for our growing global community and fostering engagement among members.
Digital Presentation
I oversaw the digital presentation and online strategy at a festival in Tbilisi, bringing Artista Artista into the digital space where global connections happen.
What began as an intimate collaboration between friends has evolved into a global network.
A network of artists, photographers, designers and creative practitioners united by one belief: real projects create real connections. Our goal is to break down the isolation of solo creative practice and build a vibrant ecosystem where collaboration thrives across disciplines, borders and mediums. Every member brings their unique vision — whether through photography, visual art, design, music, or any creative discipline yet to be discovered.
Are you a creative mind looking to connect with others who share your passion? Whether you're a photographer, designer, artist, musician, or any kind of creative talent — we want to hear from you.
