Production company ArtClass has brought Curry Sicong Tian aboard its directorial roster for North American representation spanning commercials and branded content. 

Tian has a style that blends her talents as director, concept/digital artist, 3D-mographer, and fashion photographer all into one. In 2020, she won the Student Academy Award for Best Experimental for her short film Simulacra, a haunting and thought-provoking exploration of identity in the digital age.

Tian’s ability to effortlessly integrate visual effects into her work has made her a sought-after director for brands such as Beats, Mercedes-Benz, NYX, Huawei, and Chanel. Prior to joining ArtClass, she was repped by production house RYB.

“Curry’s work is nothing short of breathtaking,” said Rebecca Niles, managing director at ArtClass. “From the moment I saw her body of work, I knew that she was someone special. She has one of the most unique directorial styles I’ve ever seen, and her breadth of talent and ability to create things we’ve never seen before make her a perfect fit for our roster of directors. We’re excited to see how she’ll push the boundaries and elevate our clients’ projects to new heights.”

“I’m thrilled to join ArtClass and to work alongside other incredibly talented creatives in the industry,” said Tian. “I’m excited to bring my perspective and push the limits of what’s possible with my craft. I can’t wait to collaborate with the team and see what we can create together.”

Alongside ArtClass, Curry is represented by CTM LLC, helmed by veteran talent manager and producer Cyrus Saidi, who has worked with Curry on several fronts including music videos, films, and her art direction projects which include high-profile work at Coachella.
