Angela Ho is a visual artist working under the moniker ‘Ahoy’. She creates her work digitally, with paint, animation and augmented reality for commercial projects and exhibitions. Hong Kong and Melbourne are the cities she calls home.
Angela's work is influenced by storytelling within popular culture particularly fantasy and science fiction to reflect societal concerns. An interest in modes of communication on social media to express emotions and concepts also inspires her work. Her aesthetic reflects mid-century paraphernalia as well as the animations of Fleischer Studios and early Disney.
Angela's commercial clients have included The New York Times For Kids, Adobe, Slurpee 7-Eleven, Vans, GQ, Fast Company magazine and Beat Bites amongst others. She was named one of Adobe’s Global Creators in 2021.
Her paintings have been exhibited with the following galleries: Outré, Beinart, Corey Helford, Dorothy Circus, the Wassaic Project and BSMT Space in Melbourne, LA, Rome, New York and London respectively. Angela's work was featured in the April 2019 print edition of Hi-Fructose New Contemporary Art magazine.

Tanja McMillan (Misery), is a New Zealand-based wall and pop artist. Tanja has exhibited in Berlin, Taiwan, Melbourne, Paris, Hawaii and Los Angeles. Her creative reach is extensive, ranging from highly crafted paintings and wall art to animation, fashion, toys and children’s decor brand Misery Guts. Tanja also sculpts, having completed two commissioned bronzes in Auckland’s Art District of Karangahape Road in 2016. Stylistically she could be equated to a saccharine Bill Hammond, with obvious visual references to her Tahitian / Chinese heritage, which can be seen through her subject matter, flattened depth of field, mode of storytelling and outstanding ink work.
