Over the summer, we’ve been communicating with several artists regarding representation and are proud to announce that we are now the artist representatives for Manuel Bortoletti, Laurie Greasley, Bartosz Kosowski and Dmitry Ligay.
Manuel Bortoletti is an award-winning infographic designer, seamlessly blending technical information, data visualisation and illustration. His clean and rational work is accompanied by attention to aesthetics and colour combinations, following his belief that a high standard of visual attractiveness draws in the viewer and motivates their understanding of data.

Dmitry Ligay was born in Uzbekistan and he resides there. Dmitry studied at the Tashkent Institute of Architecture and Construction, Faculty of Design, Uzbekistan. Whilst there, he complemented his formal education with his own artistic practice, creating illustrations for small local publications. This period of time, he believes, was foundational in establishing his fundamental artistic principles as well as determining the direction of his career in commercial illustration.
Dmitry combines a wide range of traditional materials and tools – watercolour, pencil, acrylic and brush work – with Photoshop editing, bringing traditional artistic techniques to into modern contexts. His illustrations often follow the sensibilities of collage or assemblages, and he strives to convey in his artworks the energy and nature of the physical materials.
Since establishing his career as a professional illustrator in 2009, Dmitry’s client list includes Renault, Uber, Leo Burnett, The New York Times, Harvard Business Review, Rolling Stone and Esquire.
