Stills
& Strokes About Contact For over ten years Stills & Strokes work at the threshold between photography, moving image, illustration and graphic design. They seamlessly merge analogue and digital techniques to create surreal little worlds of their own. Combining meticulous artistry with playful experimentation and a wink of the eye, Stills & Strokes expand the possibilities of commercial product presentation and bolster it with unexpected charm.
