SECRECY STUDY REPORT VOL. 1
The Secrecy Study Report Vol. 1 is an amalgamation of conceptual art, fashion, storytelling and photography. Like our characters, shop and narratives, the theme of secrecy pervades our Art Book. This subject is accentuated with the inclusion of a poster depicting our fictional TS-05 device – a machine that listens to and exposes the secrets of those who use it.
These artistic ingredients come together in a premium quality art publication. Our book is one of a kind. Only 200 are available, each authenticated with an edition number stamp (1/200 to 200/200). Each page is expertly crafted – from material to subject matter. Inspirational stories, eccentric characters, and artwork from acclaimed artists fill the 148-page folio. Each edition is packaged in a hand-printed envelope and wrapped in acid-protective plastic. Commonly used to store and ship fine art and documents, this material ensures longer preservation of your art book.
Featuring works by internationally renown visual artists.
Comes numbered with a PDT authenticity stamp and a hand screen printed envelope.

Intimacy and Autonomous Representation Through Portraiture
Art & Culture - Sept 17th 2021 by Emily Zhang
In 2016, an Amsterdam based advertising agency, along with assistance from Microsoft, created a piece they dubbed, “The Next Rembrandt.” Met with both amazement and volatile derision, the piece definitely does not have a shortage of discourse. It also, in this context, introduces a method for us to examine the perhaps overlooked inherent intimacy of not just portraiture, but the methodology of the self portrait.
The Art of Illusion: Cinematic Photography
Art & Culture - Sept 17th 2021 by Eloise Rattle
