One Old Crow is a new company dedicated to producing works across multiple mediums that highlight and celebrate an experimental nature and an explorative use of space and place. We are not interested so much in Naturalism as REALISM; in exploring the reality and truth in situations that exist outside of daily life yet illuminate our existence.

The crow is a figure whose symbolism places it as a "culture hero," one who changes the world through discovery and invention. Like the clever crow, always seeking, exploring, so too, our works hope to take nothing for granted, leave nothing to assumption, but rigorously explore the possibilities of existence. With each step we take, perhaps we bring us all closer to another culture hero.
