Welcome, and thanks for stopping by…
You've just dived into a world where creativity meets clarity, and imagination sparks problem-solving.
I'm Steve, an Art Director, Artist, and Writer (each fuelling the other), weaving stories across mediums—print, digital, experiential, AI, and more. My work spans Media, Film, TV, Music, Health & Fitness, and Youth.
Inspired by the philosophy of content shaping form (a nod to Saul Bass), my approach is intuitive, likely a trait inherited from my Irish seanchaí* ancestors. I listen with empathy, peeling back layers to reveal the core of a story or concept, and fostering unique, tailored solutions – a practice I've honed over the years.
Under my moniker, Phorestt Phyre**, I explore growth and inspiration—an ethos deeply rooted in regeneration, rebirth and renaissance, whether in nature, ideas, or storytelling. This philosophy aligns with my commitment to sustainability and working in harmony with the world around us. I create bespoke experiences that resonate with each project’s uniqueness, amplifying diverse voices and objectives while honouring the cycles of renewal and innovation.
The future holds infinite stories, and I'm excited to bring yours to life. Let's make something extraordinary together.
Steve
*Seanchaí: A Gaelic term for a traditional storyteller, known for their tales of drama, mythology, and a sprinkle of mischief.
**Phorestt Phyre: A creative blend symbolising exploration, curiosity, and my love for music, especially hip-hop's lyrical ingenuity, which turns the everyday into something extraordinary. It's a unique twist borne out of necessity—the original spelling for my site was already taken—aptly remixing a problem into the solution.
