La Conversation with Frederick M. : An Insight into the Brilliant World of Visual Aesthetics

In the start-up world, we are not unfamiliar with terms such as technology trends or financial prospects. But what about aesthetic du jour, which is the magical ability or power to see the future and set trends in art and fashion industry?

Start-up Grind Tokyo brings to you Frederick M. on November 16th, to take you on journey of the other side of camera, what it takes to make a visual campaign look drool worthy.

Every art is seduction and every seduction has a power to influence. Frederick is using this very power to highlight the plight of minority communities in developed worlds. Through his satirical visual creations, Frederick has been able to get the point across for 'Black Lives Matter'.

"My passions and interests have led me to a diverse range of work. My experience includes working as a fashion editor for a Seoul-based magazine, studio assistant, model, and creative consultant for a number of brands.

Originally from the United States of America, I have been afforded the opportunity to work and live abroad in major art and fashion cities such as Seoul, Berlin, and Tokyo.

My work has gained a reputation due to my diverse experiences and stylish sensibilities. my talent has been sought out and commissioned by various notable brands and publications across Asia, America, Europe and Australia."
